    I read the answer but didn’t understand fully

    191 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?

    A $240,000
    B $270,000
    C $315,000
    D $345,000 —> Correct

    Hi,

    What is it that you do not specifically understand within the answer? If you let me know then I will explain where you are going wrong.

    As a starter, the deferred tax liability will be this year’s timing difference multiplied by the tax rate.

    Thanks
