1. Financial reporting purposes: straight line depreciation method is used for plant assets that have a useful life of 10 years; for Tax Purposes: CCA declining balance method is used with a rate of 20%.
i. Reversing Entry that results in future taxable amounts and, therefore will usually give rise to a future income tax liability.
* Asset’s cost is deducted faster for tax purposes than it is expensed for financial reporting purposes because CCA reduces the asset value faster that straight-line. Taxable income in the early years of the asset’s life is lower than the accounting income.
* Amount will be deducted from accounting income to arrive at taxable income in the current year in order to reduce accounting income to the same level as the accounting income.
2. Landlord collects rents in advance. Rents are taxable in the period when they are received.
i. Reversing Entry that results in future deductible amounts and, therefore will usually give rise to a future income tax asset.
* The rent is taxable in the period in which it is received and because it cannot be taxed twice, as the revenue is actually earned, it is deducted from accounting income to arrive at taxable income.
* Amount will be added to accounting income to arrive at taxable income in the current year.
