36. 36 Approaches to Deferred Tax Accounting No-Deferral Approach: Ignore the differences and report income tax expense equal to the amount of tax payable for the year. Comprehensive Recognition Approach: Deferred taxes are included in the computation of income tax expense and reported on the balance sheet. Partial Recognition Approach: A deferred tax liability is recorded only to the extent that the deferred taxes are actually expected to be paid in the future.

37. 37 Intraperiod Tax Allocation Using interperiod tax allocation, the income tax effect of each special item is reported with the individual item rather than being included with income tax expense related to current operations.
