Question
At 1 April 20X5, Winchester had a deferred tax liability of 240,000 and its tax base was 22,000 B 13,250 D $8,000
Solution
To calculate the expense to profit or loss for the year ended 31 March 20X6 in respect of deferred tax, we need to follow these steps:
-
Calculate the difference between the carrying amount of the property, plant, and equipment and its tax base. This gives us the temporary difference. In this case, it's 180,000 = $60,000.
-
Multiply this temporary difference by the tax rate to get the deferred tax liability at the end of the year. So, 15,000.
-
To find the expense to profit or loss, subtract the beginning deferred tax liability from the ending deferred tax liability. So, 7,000 = $8,000.
Therefore, the expense to profit or loss for the year ended 31 March 20X6 in respect of deferred tax is 8,000.
