 Calculate the amount of cash paid for income taxes reported by Betty DeRose, Inc. in its 2017 statement of cash flows. Do not use decimals in your answer. 

Explanation / Answer

Income taxes payable at the beginning of the year = 18000

Income taxes payable at the end of the year = 30000

Therefore, the cash paid for income taxes reported by Betty DERose in its 2017 statement of cash flows is 13000.
