Answer:

                                                                               2018              2019

tax paid                                                                 $490000    $1750000

Explanation:

Tax carryforward provision has an 80% limit of losses written off in the current year provided the current year's profits are less than the loss.

tax paid in 2018                                                          remaining loss

loss offset in 2016 = $1mil*0.8 = $800000              $3200000

loss offset in 2017 = $2 mil * 0.8= $1600000          $1600000

taxable income 2018 = $3mil - $1600000= $1400000 * 35% = $490000

taxable income 2019 = $5 mil * 0.35= $1750000
