Yep, all clear)
Sorry, for such misleading layout. By SFP 10, I meant to say that 10 will go to Revaluation Surplus in Equity Section.
Mike, I appriacate your time and effort for answering my and other members questions.
Thanks!
Maybe you right!
About under/over-provision the are no problem, but thanks for the tip 😉
I read you comment before writing. As you saw in my previous post I tried to make T account, but it display wrong.
My problem that I understand that under-provision will increase my tax expenses, but I cann’t figure out how to see this in T account?
Also you say that: “The double entry for that last 7,700 entry in the credit side of the tax account is a debit entry in the Statement of Income”
So in this case Dr P&L 300 Cr ??
Sorry, for inconvenience. Thanks!
Hi!
I understand part about over/under-provision, but I still confused on the adjustment necessary at the end of year.
Example:
Income Tax Dr 100 (under-provision)
Tax Estimate 1,000 at the end of the year
(1) Income tax 100 under-provision
(2) Tax c/f 1,000
(3) Tax liability 1,000
(4) Charge to P&L
___________Tax at the end of the year______________
Dr (1) 100 b/f | Cr (3) 1,000
Dr (2) 1,000 c/f | Cr (4) 100
________________________
Dr 1,100 | Cr 1,100
___________Tax at the next year opening___________
Cr b/f 1,000
So, if I understand correctly after the end of the year provision for the year was estimated 1,000, therefore, we made transaction
Dr Exp. 1,000 Cr Tax Liability 1,000
Where did Dr 1,000 c/f came from?
And what transaction will be for adj. Dr P&L Cr Tax liability?
Thanks in advance!
