问题如下:
2. If the valuation allowance had been the same in 2007 as it was in 2006, the company would have reported $115 higher:
选项:
A.net income.
B.deferred tax assets.
C.income tax expense.
解释:
C is correct.
The reduction in the valuation allowance resulted in a corresponding reduction in the income tax provision.
解析:题目说了一个假设情景:
题目说如果2017年的valuation allowance和2016年一样,2017年是1245,2016年是1360,所以2017年valuation allowance在题干中假设变高了115。
income tax expense=current tax expense+delta DTL-delta DTA ,valution allowance增加,DTA减少,所以减值DTA的减少值会使income tax expense增加。选项C正确。
感谢老师解答,辛苦了!
本题假设公司在2007年,valuation allowance增加115,DTA减少115,在B/S上已经是平衡状态。如果在I/S中,income tax expense再对应增加115,影响到NI,对应到R/E,Equity不是又减少一笔吗?
