    Hi Mr. MikeLittle

    Can you explain to me why they have calculated this.

    Pinto – CBE Style OTQ case
    The following scenario relates to questions 279–283.
    Pinto is a publicly listed company. The following financial statements of Pinto are available:
    STATEMENT OF PROFIT OR LOSS AND OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME FOR YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 20X8
    (extract)
    $’000
    Profit before tax 440
    Income tax expense (160)
    Profit for the year 280
    Other comprehensive income
    Gains on property revaluation 100
    Total comprehensive income 380
    STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL POSITION (extracts) AS AT
    31 March 20X8 31 March 20X7
    $’000 $’000 $’000 $’000
    Non-current assets (note (i))
    Property, plant and equipment 2,880 1,860
    Investment property 420 400
    3,300 2,260
    Equity and liabilities
    Equity shares of 20 cents each (note (iii)) 1,000 600
    Share premium 600 Nil
    Revaluation surplus 150 50
    Retained earnings 1,440 2,190 1,310 1,360
    3,190 1,960
    Non-current liabilities
    6% loan notes nil 400
    Deferred tax 50 50 30 430
    Current liabilities
    Trade payables 1,410 1,050
    Bank overdraft nil 120
    Warranty provision 200 100
    Current tax payable 150 1,760 nil 1,270
    Total equity and liabilities 5,000 3,660
    The following supporting information is available:
    (i) An item of plant with a carrying amount of $240,000 was sold at a loss of $90,000 during the year.
    Depreciation of $280,000 was charged (to cost of sales) for property, plant and equipment in the year ended
    31 March 20X8.
    Pinto uses the fair value model in IAS 40 Investment property. There were no purchases or sales of investment
    property during the year.
    (ii) A dividend of 3 cents per share was paid on 1 January 20X8.
    (iii) $60,000 was included in Pinto’s profit before tax for the year ended 31 March 20X8 in respect of income and
    gains on investment property.
    You are preparing a statement of cash flows for Pinto for the year to 31 March 20X8.
    279 What is the amount of tax that Pinto either received or paid during the year?
    $60,000 paid
    $60,000 received
    $10,000 paid
    $10,000 received

    I have calculated this example and other like this which is given in the book.
    b/f Deferred tax+current tax 30
    P/L 160
    x
    c/d 200
    x=tax received 10.
    but it was wrong according to their calculation. why?
    thanks for attention

    You appear to have omitted the 50 income tax asset that was in last year’s statement of financial position (as well as all the other current assets! Your balance sheet doesn’t balance!)

    OK?
