Solution

The correct statement in accordance with AASB 112 Income Taxes is: The current tax expense for the year ended 30 June 2020 was $33,000.

Here's how you calculate it:

  1. Calculate the current tax expense: The taxable profit is 170,000andthetaxrateis30170,000 and the tax rate is 30%. So, the current tax expense is 170,000 * 30% = $51,000.

  2. Calculate the deferred tax expense: The total tax expense is given as 60,000.Thedeferredtaxexpenseisthetotaltaxexpenseminusthecurrenttaxexpense.So,thedeferredtaxexpenseis60,000. The deferred tax expense is the total tax expense minus the current tax expense. So, the deferred tax expense is 60,000 - 51,000=51,000 = 9,000.

  3. Calculate the deferred tax liability at the end of the period: The deferred tax liability is given as $27,000. This is the balance at the end of the period.

  4. Calculate the deferred tax liability at the beginning of the period: Since there was no deferred tax asset at the beginning or end of the period, the deferred tax liability at the beginning of the period is the deferred tax liability at the end of the period minus the deferred tax expense. So, the deferred tax liability at the beginning of the period is 27,00027,000 - 9,000 = $18,000.

So, the correct statement is: The current tax expense for the year ended 30 June 2020 was $33,000.
