Debit Income Tax Expense $11,610 Credit Deferred Tax $11,610

Explanation:

PreTax Income                          $66,100

1 . Depreciation                          -$14,800

2 . Rent                                     +$23,900

3 . Fines                                   -$10,000

Taxable Income                     $65,200

Income Tax Payable (30%)   $19,560

Taxable income is in few words net income computed by The Taxman using tax laws and methods. in some cases the Accountant and Taxman can disagree on some things therefore creating temporal and permanent difference. Hence we adjust the Pretax income to arrive at Taxable income.

Income Tax Expense = Income Tax Payable + Deferred tax

Deferred tax arises from temporal difference (Carrying amount - Tax Base)

Deferred Tax = (14,800 * 30%) + ($23,900*30%)

                     = $4,440 + $7,170

                    = $11,610

Fines are permanent difference therefore no differed tax arises from them.

A1. Taxable income is $85,800

A2. Income tax payable is $19,830

B.

B.

Income tax expense will be the tax rate applied to the Tax Payable amount of $85,800 = $25,740

Whereas the Tax Payable was worked out in the part 1 of our solution as $19,830. This leaves us with an under provision of taxes of $5,910. This $5,910 under provision is referred to as the Deferred tax provision.

Explanation:

Vaughn company

Taxable income is income reviewed from the eyes of the tax authority.

There are some elements of the income statement that are allowable and some not allowable for tax deductions subject to the IRS rules. These are to be considered in finalising the Business Taxable income

Pretax income from financial statement for 2020 = $66,100

Deduct Tax adjustments on Asset Written down Value = -$14,800

Add back Rent received in advance = $23,900

Add back fines on pollution = $10,600

TAXABLE INCOME = $85,800

Income tax Payable on the other hand is a provision made for tax liability based on income arising from the Financial statement. It is an Accounting provision not calculated by the Tax authorities.

In this case, Gross Income was declared to be $66,100

Applying 30% on that gives us our income Tax payable = $19,830
