Q

How do you calculate effective tax rate?

A

(1.) Start with Net Income and adjust up or down for non taxable or non deductible items.
(2.)The effective tax rate would be the total tax due divided by the total income earned:
Example:
Net Income 200,000
(20,000) Int Rev Muni bonds
(10.000) Insurance Prem
190,000 Total
x 30% Tax Rate
57,000 Tax Due

57,000/200,000=28.5% effective Tax rate

Leer Corp.’s pretax income in the current year was $100,000. The temporary differences between amounts reported in the financial statements and the tax return are as follows:
•Depreciation in the financial statements was $8,000 more than tax depreciation.
•The equity method of accounting resulted in financial statement income of $35,000. A $25,000 dividend was received during the year, which is eligible for the 80% dividends-received deduction.

Leer’s effective income tax rate was 30%. In its current year income statement, Leer should report a cur­rent provision for income taxes of:

Q

What is intraperiod tax allocation?

A

The term “intraperiod tax allocation” refers to the distribution of the tax expense for the period to the various categories of income as presented in the income statement and, on occasion, to items resulting in the direct adjustment of retained earnings. The need for intraperiod tax allocation thus arises from the categorization of various elements of income as one or more of the following in addition to normal, recurring operations:

a. Discontinued operations
b. Cumulative effects of accounting changes
c. Prior-period adjustments
d. Direct adjustments to capital accounts

Items treated in any of these ways must include the tax effect to maintain the proper relationship among the various income captions on the income statement.

Q

At the end of 20X1, its first year of operations, Patch Co. has only one type of temporary difference—a $9,000 taxable temporary difference that is expected to reverse at the rate of $3,000 per year in each of the years 20X2–20X4. This temporary difference is not related to any specific asset or liability on the enterprise’s balance sheet. Assuming a 40% tax rate, Patch should report on its December 31, 20X1, balance sheet:

A

The deferred tax asset or liability in this case will be a liability because the underlying temporary differences are taxable temporary differences. Since the deferred tax liability is not related to an asset or liability, it should be classified according to the reversal of the underlying temporary differences (FASB ASC 740-10-45-9).

Accordingly, since 1/3 ($3,000 of the $9,000 total) of the temporary differences reverse within the next year, 1/3 of the deferred tax liability should be classified as current, and 2/3 as noncurrent. The total deferred tax liability is 40% of $9,000 = $3,600. Therefore, $1,200 should be classified as a current liability and $2,400 as a noncurrent liability.

Q

How are deferred tax assets/liabilities presented on the B/S?

A

Once all items have been classified as current or noncurrent, we now net current with current and noncurrent with noncurrent, to show one net current or one net noncurrent

Q

On its December 31, 20X1, balance sheet, Shin Co. had income taxes payable of $13,000 and a current deferred tax asset of $20,000 before determining the need for a valuation account. Shin had reported a current deferred tax asset of $15,000 at December 31, 20X0. No estimated tax payments were made during 20X1. At December 31, 20X1, Shin determined that it was likely that 10% of the deferred tax asset would not be realized. In its 20X1 income statement, what amount should Shin report as total income tax expense?

A

JE for Income tax expense

DR Income tax Expenes
CR/DR Deferred Income tax asset/liability
