Hello Chris! Need your help for a question. -current tax payable 20x8= $150000, 20x7= nil -deferred tax 20x8=$50000. 20x7=30000 Income tax for the year was $160,000. What is the amount of tax that Pinto either received or paid during the year? 1. The answer is $60000 received. 2. The working in the kit is as follows: B/f current(asset) (50000) B/f deferred tax 30000 charge to the year 160000 received(balance) 60000 balance c/f( current+deferred) 200000 3. Could you explain do we deduct 50000, that is, "B/f current(asset) (50000)" Thanks in advance

Hi, There must be some other information in the question that gives us the opening balance. It isn't a tax payable balance, so presumably there is an amount due from the tax authorities in the form of a tax rebate. Thanks
