    Carry down in the deferred tax account from above the line debit to below the line credit the amount of 1m

    That now has created the obligation – the credit amount below the line will be on the sofp

    Now balance off the deferred tax account (add up the bigger side, same figure on the other side, put in the figure that makes the smaller side add up to the same total as the bigger side total, and double enter that missing figure to the current tax account (in your example, that’s put in the credit side above the line $1m to make it balance and debit that $1m to the current tax account.

    Now balance off the current tax account and double enter that missing figure to the statement of profit or loss

    So, we established the obligation higher up in this post and now we have established the charge (debit) to the statement of profit or loss

    Does that lot make sense to you?

    Exactly as I have detailed above! How does a consolidation exercise affect the entries for creating a deferred tax obligation?

    I don’t think that I have understood your problem, sorry
