    At 30 Sep, A has non-current assets with carrying value of $1,100,000 but a tax written down value of $700,000.

    the brought forward balance on the deferred tax account is $300,000, tax rate 30%
    Compute deferred tax at 30 Sep??

    Deferred tax = Temporary difference x Tax rate
    = $400,000 x 30%
    In this case, ‘cos Carrying value in Tax base ($700,000) < Carrying value in Accounting treatment ($1,100,000), it is Deferred tax liability

    In this case, the Temp Tax Difference is 400k. As Trangdh mentioned, as NBV is greater than the TWDV, a deferred tax liability arises.
    At 30 Sep, the B/S figure for Deferred Tax should therefore be 400k x 30% = 120k
    As Deferred Tax brought forward from last year is 300k, you must decrease this to 120k, with the corresponding entry going to the Income Statement.
    i.e. Dr B/S Deferred Tax 180k
    Cr I/S Tax Charge 180k

    Hi Dragon,
    Your question is lack of information to answer. Or I find it unclear to understand 🙂

    1. What is the starting day and end of period? ‘cos I cant understand 30/9 is the first day or last day of year.
    2. “the brought forward balance on the deferred tax account is $300,000” –>
    The brought forward balance at which time, which day? ‘cos it can be brought forward from last year or this year

    Pls make it clearer and we can find answer easier
