问题如下:
Question A company has a building with a net carrying amount of $100,000 and a tax base of $120,000. The tax rate was 20% when the asset was purchased, but it is scheduled to be reduced to 17% this year. Which of the following will the company most likely report related to this building?选项:
A.Deferred tax asset: $4,000 B.Deferred tax asset: $3,400 C.Deferred tax liability: $600解释:
SolutionB is correct. The deferred tax asset is based on the temporary difference arising from the difference in the carrying value for taxes vs. the financial statements = (120,000 – 100,000) × 17% = 3,400. The rate that should be used is the rate expected when the reversal will occur, which is now the lower rate of 17%.
A is incorrect because the old tax rate is used: (120,000 – 100,000) × 20% = 4,000.
C is incorrect. It incorrectly nets the tax rates: (100,000 – 120,000) × (20% – 17%) = –600.
如果要问dlta DTA/DTL的话,那就应该是600是吗。
然而现在问的是DTL或者DTL,所以,是算tax rate变化后的总的deferred taxable asset/lia,这样理解对吗?
