During December 2017, Madden received money for renting a building to a tenant. Madden must report the rent as income on its 2017 tax form.

During 2017, Madden was assessed a large fine by the federal government for polluting the environment. Madden’s accountant has indicated that the fine cannot be deducted as an expense for income tax purposes.
