Heaven knows how you got 140! All the figures are round hundreds! It also would have helped if you had written 2,500 instead of 25000 (that's why I always use the thousand separating comma In the deferred tax account, debit, I have 1,200 carry forward liability On the credit side I have 800 brought forward So a balancing figure of 400 on the credit side going to the debit of the current tax account Also on the current tax debit side I have 700 from the tax relief, double entered in the sopl On the credit side of the current tax account I have 2,500 brought forward liability In addition on the credit side carried forward to next year's debit side I have a 500 asset tax refund receivable That gives me a missing figure on the debit side of 1,900 and that must be cash paid OK?
