ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
1. Pretax financial income is reported on the income statement and is often referred to as income
2. One objective of accounting for income taxes is to recognize the amount of taxes payable or
refundable for the current year. A second is to recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets for the
3. A permanent difference is a difference between taxable income and pretax financial income that,
under existing applicable tax laws and regulations, will not be offset by corresponding differences
or “turn around” in other periods. Therefore, a permanent difference is caused by an item that:
(1) is included in pretax financial income but never in taxable income, or (2) is included in taxable
income but never in pretax financial income.
4. A temporary difference is a difference between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its
reported (carrying or book) amount in the financial statements that will result in taxable amounts
or deductible amounts in future years when the reported amount of the asset is recovered or
when the reported amount of the liability is settled. The temporary differences discussed in this
chapter all result from differences between taxable income and pretax financial income which will
reverse and result in taxable or deductible amounts in future periods.
5. An originating temporary difference is the initial difference between the book basis and the tax basis
of an asset or liability. A reversing difference occurs when a temporary difference that originated

8. A future taxable amount will increase taxable income relative to pretax financial income in future
periods due to temporary differences existing at the statement of financial position date. A future
deductible amount will decrease taxable income relative to pretax financial income in future periods

14. Some of the reasons for requiring income tax component disclosures are:
(a) Assessment of the quality of earnings. Many investors seeking to assess the quality of a
company’s earnings are interested in the relation of pre-tax financial income and taxable
15. The loss carryback provision permits a company to carry a net operating loss back two years and
receive refunds for income taxes paid in those years. The loss must be applied to the second
16. The company may choose to carry the net operating loss forward, or carry it back and then
forward for tax purposes. To forego the two-year carryback might be advantageous where a tax-
payer had tax credit carryovers that might be wiped out and lost because of the carryback of the
17. Many believe that future deductible amounts arising from net operating loss carryforwards are
different from future deductible amounts arising from normal operations. One rationale provided
is that a deferred tax asset arising from normal operations results in a tax prepayment—a prepaid
tax asset. In the case of loss carryforwards, no tax prepayment has been made.
Others argue that realization of a loss carryforward is less likely—and thus should require a more

Note to instructor: Because of the flat tax rate for all years, the amount
of cumulative temporary difference existing at the beginning of the
year can be calculated by dividing $90,000 by 40%, which equals
$225,000. The difference between the $225,000 cumulative temporary
difference at the beginning of 2019 and the $350,000 cumulative tem-
porary difference at the end of 2019 represents the net amount of
temporary difference originating during 2019 (which is $125,000). With
this information, we can reconcile pretax financial income with taxable
income as follows:
