2. A.
A corporation may not deduct federal income taxes for federal tax purposes. In addition, only 50 percent of meals and entertainment may be deducted. As a result, Cape will add back the $140,000 book income federal tax of $40,000 and 50 percent of the meals and entertainment, or $25,000, resulting in taxable income of $205,000.
