At F6 you will not have to deal with the correct treatment of R&D expenditure in the adjustment of trading profits other than to treat it as allowable. This issue is dealt with at P6!

I had the question from P2 regarding defferd tax (the one I posted in my first post)

I am not sure which "first post" you are referring to, but deferred tax is a corporate reporting issue NOT a tax issue and if you have a P2 query then you should post it on P2 Ask the Tutor forum.

Hi rameez if your question is about deferred tax then this is a P2 question. At P6 you learn that an additional deduction for qualifying R&D expenditure is available for taxation. This will create a difference between the profit for corporate reporting and the adjusted profit for corporate tax purposes and hence it becomes a deferred tax issue in the financial statements.
