    HI Mike!

    I need your help for a question in the BPP kit.

    The following information relates to an entity.
    (i) At 1 January 20X8 the carrying amount of non-current assets exceeded their tax written down value by
    $850,000.
    (ii) For the year to 31 December 20X8 the entity claimed depreciation for tax purposes of $500,000 and
    charged depreciation of $450,000 in the financial statements.
    (iii) During the year ended 31 December 20X8 the entity revalued a property. The revaluation surplus was
    $250,000. There are no current plans to sell the property.
    (iv) The tax rate was 30% throughout the year.
    What is the provision for deferred tax required by IAS 12 Income Taxes at 31 December 20X8?

    1.The answer is $345,000
    2. The working in the book makes life complicated.
    3. Please help !

    Put in some imaginary figures!

    2,000,000 carrying value brought forward
    ( 450,000) depreciation
    250,000 revaluation
    1,800,000 carrying value carried forward

    So far as the taxman is concerned …

    1,150,000 tax wdv brought forward
    ( 500,000) capital allowances this year
    650,000 tax wdv carried forward

    Carrying value exceeds tax wdv by 1,150,000

    1,150,000 @ 30% = 345,000

    Is that any better for you?
