    Hey!
    Hope that you are doing well.

    I can not understand what IAS 12 (Para 7 and 8) is saying about the tax base of assets and liabilities. Can you kindly explain it to me.
    Regards

    Best advice is not to worry – as long as you can follow our online lectures.

    As an example:

    Asset = development costs.

    Assume carrying amount is 100.

    Of the 100 how much will be : “deductible against taxable economic benefits from recovering the carrying amount of the asset.

    Answer = nil because tax relief already obtained at time development costs capitalised

    So tax base = nil.

    REMEMBER:
    1. WHAT MATTERS IN THE EXAM IS THAT YOU CAN IDENTIFY THE TEMPORARY DIFFERENCE.
    2. EXCEPT FOR PPE TAX BASE IS GENERALLY $NIL
