    Good Day,
    Please assist me with this mini question, as I am unable to arrive at the answer given.

    Trial balance extract at 30 September, 2008
    Income tax (credit balance) 400
    Deferred tax liability 11,200
    The balance of income tax in the trial balance represents the under/over provision of the previous year’s estimate. The estimated income tax liability for the year ended 30 September 2008 is $18.7 million. At 30 September 2008 there were $40 million of taxable temporary differences. The income tax rate is 25%.
    Note: you may assume that the movement in deferred tax should be taken to the Statement of
    Profit or Loss.

    Deferred opening balance 11 200
    Deferred closing balance 25%*40 000 = 10 000
    Income Statement transfer (1 200)

    Tax for year 18 700
    Cr over provision (400)
    Transfer (1 200)

    17 100

    Deferred tax in SFP 10 000
    Tax in SPL 17 100

    is this right?

    Deferred Tax $
    Opening balance 11 200
    Transferred to current income tax (1 200)

    Current year expense (I/S) 17 100

    Note that :-
    (a) A credit balance in the trial balance of a current tax is an over-provision made in the prior year and should be subtracted in order to determine the current year tax expense to be charged in the profit or loss statement.

    (b) A debit balance is an under-provision and should be added when calculating the current year tax expense.
