chapter 16 Income Taxes 1 Learning Objectives 1. 2. 3. 4. Understand the concept of deferred taxes and the distinction between permanent and temporary differences. Compute the amount of deferred tax liabilities and assets. Explain the provisions of tax loss carrybacks and carryforwards, and be able to account for these provisions. Schedule future tax rates, and determine the effect on tax assets and liabilities. 2 Learning Objectives 5. 6. 7. Determine appropriate financial statement presentation and disclosure associated with deferred tax assets and liabilities. Comply with income tax disclosure requirements associated with the statement of cash flows. Describe how, with respect to deferred income taxes, international accounting standards have converged toward the U.S. treatment. 3 Deferred Income Taxes: An Overview The primary goal of financial accounting is to provide useful information to management, stockholders, creditors, and other properly interested. The primary goal of the income tax system is the equitable collection of revenue. 4 Deferred Income Taxes: An Overview Two basic considerations in U.S. corporations computed net income. 1. How to account for revenues and expenses that have already been recognized and reported to shareholders in a company’s financial statements but will not affect taxable income until subsequent years. 5 Deferred Income Taxes: An Overview Two basic considerations in U.S. corporations computed net income. 2. How to account for revenues and expenses that have already been reported to the IRS but will not be recognized in the financial statements until subsequent years. 6 Simple Deferred Tax Liabilities • Examples – Revenues (or gains) taxable after they are recognized for financial reporting, such as receivables from installment sales. – Expenses (or losses) deductible for tax purposes before they are recognized for financial reporting purposes, such as accelerated tax depreciation. 7 Simple Deferred Tax Liabilities In 2005, Ibanez Company earned revenues of $30,000. Ibanez has no expenses other than income taxes. In this case, Ibanez is taxed on cash received. The company received $10,000 in 2005 and $20,000 in 2006. The income tax rate is 40% and it is expected to remain the same into the foreseeable future.

Realization of a Deferred Tax Asset depends on the existence of taxable income in future years 11 Simple Deferred Tax Asset In 2005, Gupta Corporation generated service revenues totaling $60,000, all taxable in 2005. No warranty claims were made in 2005, but Gupta estimates that in 2006 warranty costs of $10,000 will incurred for claims related to 2005 service revenues. Assume a 40% tax rate.

This amount includes $20,000 of nontaxable revenues and $5,000 of nondeductible expenses. The depreciation method used for tax purposes allowed a deduction that exceeded the book approach by $30,000.

Because the assets and liabilities recorded under this method are in agreement with the FASB definitions of financial statement elements, the method is conceptually consistent with other standards. Continued 18 Annual Computation of Deferred Tax Liabilities and Assets 2. The asset and liability method is a flexible method that recognizes changes in circumstances and adjusts the reported amounts accordingly. This flexibility may improve the predictive value of the financial statements. 19 Annual Computation of Deferred Tax Liabilities and Assets Identify type and amounts of existing temporary differences. Measure the deferred tax liability for taxable temporary differences (use enacted rates). Measure the deferred tax asset for deductible temporary differences (use enacted rates). Establish valuation allowance account if more likely than not ( >50%) some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. 20 21 Example 3: Deferred Tax Liability For 2005, Roland computes pretax financial income of $75,000. The only difference between financial and taxable income is depreciation. The enacted tax rate is 40%. The 2005 tax is $24,000 (40% of $60,000). Financial income subject to tax $75,000 Deduct temporary difference: Excess of tax depreciation ($40,000) over book depreciation ($25,000) (15,000) Taxable income $60,000 Continued 22 Income tax expense = Pre-tax financial income (or financial income subject to tax i.e. excluding permanent differences) X Tax % Note – the above is true only if future tax rates do not change 23 Example 3: Deferred Tax Liability Journal entry for 2005 Income Tax Expense 30,000 Income Taxes Payable 24,000 Deferred Tax Liability— Noncurrent 6,000 Continued 24 Example 3: Deferred Tax Liability For 2006, Roland earned income of $75,000 and the taxable income is $70,000, or a tax of $28,000. Financial income subject to tax $75,000 Deduct temporary difference: Excess of tax depreciation ($30,000) over book depreciation ($25,000) (5,000) Taxable income $70,000 Tax @ 40% $28,000 Continued 25 Example 3: Deferred Tax Liability Journal entry for 2006 Income Tax Expense 30,000 Income Taxes Payable 28,000 Deferred Tax Liability— Noncurrent 2,000 Continued $5,000 x .40 26 Example 3: Deferred Tax Liability Depreciation expense in 2007 is the same for both financial and tax, so the entry is simple.

Income Tax Expenses 30 Example 4: Deferred Tax Asset Some possible sources of taxable income to be considered in evaluating the realistic value of a deferred tax asset are: Future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences. Future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences. Taxable income in prior (carryback) years. 31 Example 4: Deferred Tax Asset For 2005, Sandusky Inc. computes pretax financial income of $22,000. The only difference between financial and taxable income is the recognition of warranty expense. Accrued warranty expense for 2005 was $18,000; no actual warranty expenditures were made in 2005. The warranty obligation is considered one-third current and two-thirds noncurrent. Continued 32 Example 4: Deferred Tax Asset Taxable income in 2005 is calculated as follows: Financial income subject to tax $22,000 Add temporary difference: Excess of warranty expense ($18,000) over warranty deductions ($0) 18,000 Taxable income $40,000 Tax ($40,000 x .40) $16,000 Continued 33 Example 4: Deferred Tax Asset Journal entry for 2005 Income Tax Expense 8,800 Deferred Tax Asset—Current 2,400 Deferred Tax Asset— Noncurrent 4,800 Income Taxes Payable 16,000 Continued 34 Example 4: Deferred Tax Asset In the years 2006 through 2008, taxable income would be $16,000, computed as follows: Financial income subject to tax Reversal of temporary difference: Excess of warranty deductions (1/3 x $18,000) over warranty expense ($0) Taxable income Tax ($16,000 x .40) $22,000 (6,000) $16,000 $ 6,400 35 Example 4: Deferred Tax Asset Journal entry for 2006 Income Tax Expense Deferred Tax Asset— Current Income Taxes Payable 8,800 2,400 6,400 Deferred Tax Asset— Current 2,400 Deferred Tax Asset— Noncurrent 2,400 Continued 36 Example 4: Deferred Tax Asset Journal entry for 2007 Income Tax Expense Deferred Tax Asset— Current Income Taxes Payable Deferred Tax Asset— Current Deferred Tax Asset— Noncurrent 8,800 2,400 6,400 2,400 2,400 37 Example 4: Deferred Tax Asset Journal entry for 2008 Income Tax Expense Deferred Tax Asset— Current Income Taxes Payable 8,800 2,400 6,400 Example 5: Deferred Tax Liabilities and Assets For 2005, Hsieh reported pretax financial income of $38,000. As of December 31, 2005, the actual depreciation expense was $25,000 and the actual warranty expense was $18,000. For income tax reporting, these expenses were $40,000 and $0, respectively.

Year Income (Loss) Tax Rate 2006 2007 $(19,000) (35,000) 30% 30% Continued Income Tax $0 0 45 Accounting for NOL Carryforward The only loss remaining against which operating income can be applied is $5,000 from 2005 ($14,000 – $9,000). This leaves $30,000 to be carried forward from 2007 as a future tax benefit of $9,000 ($30,000 x .30). Continued 46 Accounting for NOL Carryforward The journal entry at the end of 2007 to record the tax benefits would be as follows: Income Tax Refund Receivable Deferred Tax Asset—NOL Carryforward Income Tax Benefit from NOL Carryback Income Tax Benefit from NOL Carryforward 1,500 9,000 1,500 9,000 47 Accounting for NOL Carryforward The firm reports a taxable income of $50,000 in 2008. The tax carryforward allows management to deduct the carryforward from the $15,000 tax ($50,000 x .30) that would be due without the carryforward. Journal Entry: Income Tax Expense Income Taxes Payable Deferred Tax Asset—NOL Carryforward 15,000 6,000 9,000 48 Accounting for NOL Carryforward What if, due to a declining market, management believes that losses will continue in the future and the tax benefit will not be realized? 49 Accounting for NOL Carryforward Journal Entry: Income Tax Refund Receivable 1,500 Deferred Tax Asset—NOL Carryforward 9,000 Income Tax Benefit from NOL Carryback 1,500 Allowance to Reduce Deferred Tax Assets to Realizable Value— NOL Carryforward 9,000 As a result of this entry, the deferred tax asset is zero— the expected realizable value. Financial Statement Presentation and Disclosure The following items must appear in the income statement or an accompanying note: • • • • Current tax expense or benefit Deferred tax expense or benefit Investment tax credits Government grants recognized as tax reductions Continued 50 Financial Statement Presentation and Disclosure The following items must appear in the income statement or an accompanying note: • Benefits of NOL carryforwards • Adjustments of a deferred tax liability or asset for enacted changes in tax laws or rates or a change in the tax status of an enterprise • Adjustments in beginning-of-the-year valuation allowance because of a change in circumstances 51 Deferred Taxes and the Statement of Cash Flows Callazo Company had the following information for 2005: Revenue (all cash) $30,000 Income tax expense: Current $10,300 Deferred 1,700 (12,000) Net income $18,000 Cash paid for income taxes during 2005 totaled $13,300.
