9. 9  Permanent differences.  Temporary differences.  Operating loss carrybacks and carryforwards.  Tax credits.  Intraperiod tax allocations. Causes of Differences

10. 10 1.Should corporations be required to make interperiod income tax allocations for temporary differences, or should there be no interperiod tax allocation? 2.If interperiod tax allocation is required, should it be based on a comprehensive approach for all temporary differences or on a partial approach for certain temporary differences? 3.Should interperiod tax allocation be applied using the asset/liability method or the deferred method? Conceptual Issues

11. 11 The FASB concluded that--  Interperiod income tax allocation of temporary differences is appropriate.  The comprehensive allocation approach is to be applied.  The asset/liability method of income tax allocation is to be used. Conceptual Issues

12. 12 Some items of revenue and expense that a corporation reports for financial accounting purposes are never reported for income tax purposes. These permanent differences never reverse in a later accounting period. Permanent Differences

13. 13 Permanent Differences

14. 14 Revenues that are recognized for financial reporting purposes but are never taxable 1.Interest on state and local government bonds 2.Life insurance proceeds payable to a corporation upon death of insured Revenues that are recognized for financial reporting purposes but are never taxable 1.Interest on state and local government bonds 2.Life insurance proceeds payable to a corporation upon death of insured ContinuedContinued Permanent Differences

16. 16 Deductions that are allowed for income tax purposes but do not qualify as expenses under generally accepted accounting principles 1.Percentage depletion in excess of cost depletion 2.Dividend received deduction Deductions that are allowed for income tax purposes but do not qualify as expenses under generally accepted accounting principles 1.Percentage depletion in excess of cost depletion 2.Dividend received deduction Permanent differences affect either a corporation’s reported pretax financial income or its taxable income, but not both. Permanent Differences

17. 17 Corporations receive a 70% deduction for dividends received if less than 20% of a U.S. corporation is owned, an 80% deduction for dividends received if 80% or less of a U.S. corporation is owned, and a 100% deduction for dividends received if more than 80% of a U.S. corporation is owned. Dividend Received Deduction

18. 18 A temporary difference causes a difference between a corporation’s pretax financial income and taxable income that “originates” in one or more years and “reverses” in later years. Temporary Differences

19. 19 1.For example, a depreciable asset may be depreciated using MACRS over the prescribed tax life for income purposes, but using straight-line depreciation over a longer life for financial reporting purposes.

28. 28 The FASB established four basic principles that a corporation is to apply in accounting for its income taxes at the date of its financial statements. Conceptual Issues

29. 29 1.A current tax liability or asset is recognized for the estimated income tax obligation or refund on its income tax return for the current year. 2.A deferred tax liability or asset is recognized for the estimated future tax effects of each temporary difference. ContinuedContinued Conceptual Issues

30. 30 3.The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets is based on provisions of the enacted tax law; the effects of future changes in tax law or rates are not anticipated. 4.The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by the amount of any tax benefits that are not expected to be realized. Conceptual Issues

31. 31 1.The applicable income tax rates. 2.Whether a valuation allowance should be established for deferred tax assets. The FASB addressed two issues regarding the measurement of deferred tax liabilities or deferred tax asset in its financial statements. Measurement

32. 32 Step 1.Measure the income tax obligation by applying the applicable tax rate to the current taxable income. Step 2.Identify the existing temporary differences and classify each as either“taxable” or “deductible.” Step 3.Measure the deferred tax liability for each taxable temporary difference using the applicable tax rate. ContinuedContinued Steps in Recording and Reporting of Current and Deferred Taxes

33. 33 Step 4.Measure the deferred tax asset for each deductible temporary difference using the applicable tax rate. Step 5.Reduce deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Step 6.Record the income tax obligation, change in deferred tax liabilities and/or deferred tax assets, change in valuation allowance (if any), and plug income tax expense. Steps in Recording and Reporting of Current and Deferred Taxes

34. 34 In 2007, Track Company purchased an asset at a cost of $6,000. For financial reporting purposes, the asset has a 4-year life, no residual value, and is depreciated by the units-of-output method over 6,000 units (2007: 1,600 units). For income tax purposes the asset is depreciated under MACRS using the 3-year life (33.33% for 2007). The taxable income is $7,500 and the income tax rate for 2007 is 30%. Basic Entries This button will be used later

35. 35 In the future taxable income will be higher than financial income, so the taxable amount times the tax rate is the deferred tax liability. Financial Income Tax Year Depreciation Depreciation Difference 2007$1,600$2,000400 Deferred Tax Liability

36. 36 Step 1.$7,500 (taxable income) x 30% Step 2.The depreciation difference is identified as the only taxable temporary difference. Step 3.The $120 total deferred tax liability is calculated by multiplying the total taxable temporary difference ($400) times the future tax rate (30%). Steps 4 and 5. No deferred tax asset, so not required. Step 6.A journal entry is made. ContinuedContinued Basic Entries

41. 41 Klemper Company sells a product on which it provides a 3-year warranty. For financial reporting purposes, the company estimates its future warranty costs and records a warranty expense/liability at year-end. For income tax purposes, the company deducts its warranty costs when paid. Deferred Tax Asset

42. 42 At the beginning of 2007, the company had a deferred tax asset of $330 related to its warranty plan. At the end of 2007, the company estimates that its ending warranty liability is $1,400. In 2007, the company has taxable income of $5,000 and a tax rate of 30%. The ending Deferred Asset should be $1,400 X 30%, or $420.

43. 43 Deferred Tax Asset and Valuation Allowance If it is “more likely than not” that a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance must be established.

44. 44 Negative Evidence Negative evidence indicating the need for a valuation allowance include: 1.A history of operating loss or tax credit carryforwards expiring unused. 2.Losses expected in early future years (by a presently profitable entity). 3.Unrecognized loss contingencies that, if unfavorably resolved, would adversely affect future operations and profit levels on a continuing basis in future years. 4.A carryback, carryforward period that is so brief that it would limit realization of tax benefits.

45. 45 Positive Evidence Positive evidence as to whether existing net deductible temporary differences and loss carryforwards will be realized include: 1.Existing contracts or firm sales backlog will produce more than enough future taxable income to realize the deferred tax asset based on existing sales prices and cost structures. 2.Income in carryback years prior to the present year. 3.Feasible and presently available tax strategies would result in more than enough taxable income to realize the deferred tax asset. 4.Appreciation of assets is sufficient to realize the deferred tax asset. 5.A strong earnings history exclusive of the charge to income that created the future deductible amount coupled with evidence indicating the transaction or event that created the charge to income (i.e. extraordinary item) is an aberration rather than a continuing condition.

46. 46 Deferred Tax Assets and Valuation Allowance At the end of 2007, Klemper Corporation decides that it is “more likely than not” that $600 of the ending temporary difference will not be realized. (30% tax rate) Income Tax Expense180 Allowance to Reduce Deferred Tax Asset to Realizable Value180

51. 51 FASB concluded in FASB Statement No. 109 that GAAP for operating carrybacks and carryforwards are... Conceptual Issues

52. 52 1.A corporation must recognize the tax benefit of an operating loss carryback in the period of the loss as an asset on its balance sheet and as a reduction of the operating loss on its income statement. 2.A corporation must recognize the tax benefit of an operating loss carryforward in the period of the loss as a deferred tax asset. However, it must reduce the deferred tax asset by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that the corporation will not realize some or all of the deferred tax asset. Conceptual Issues

53. 53 Operating Loss Carrybacks and Carryforwards

54. 54 Monk Company reports a pretax operating loss of $90,000 in 2007 for both financial reporting and income tax purposes, and that reported pretax financial income and taxable income for the previous 2 years had been: 2005--$40,000 (tax rate 25%); and 2006--$70,000 (tax rate 30%).

55. 55 Income Statement An operating loss is reduced by the benefit, not by the total carryback. Pretax operating loss$(90,000) Less: Income tax benefit from operating loss carryback $40,000 x 25% + $50,000 x 30%25,000 Net loss$(65,000)

56. 56 Lake Company reports a pretax operating loss of $60,000 in 2007 for both financial reporting and income tax purposes. The income tax rate is 30% and no change in the tax rate has been enacted for future years. The deferred tax asset is calculated to be $18,000 ($60,000 x 0.30).

59. 59 Income tax allocation within a period is mandatory under GAAP. Intraperiod Tax Allocation

60. 60 Intraperiod Tax Allocation Income tax may appear in five different places in the financial statements for a period. 1.Income from continuing operations 2.Discontinued operations 3.Extraordinary items 4.Prior period and retrospective adjustments 5.Other comprehensive income
