Hi,
If the carrying amount is greater than the tax base then we have a deferred tax liability and not a deferred tax asset, as you say. It will be a deferred tax liability as the tax base is lower due to the company claiming more capital allowances than depreciation charged. There will therefore be less capital allowances available in the future if we have claimed this amount of capital allowances already, and so we would therefore pay more tax in future as we get less of a deduction against taxable profits.
Thanks

Thanks
I am referring to liabilitiy item rather than asset item such as warranty expense
usually will be Non-current OR current??? how to identify the deferred tax asset/liability is current OR non-current?
