...1.0 Introduction This assignment focuses on the effects of Deferred Tax Assets (DTA) on entities and how entities make justifications on DTA arise or in this case, the Product Warranty, and the recognition criteria for DTA. A Deferred Tax Asset represents the increase or decrease in taxes payable or refundable in future years as a result of ‘Temporary Differences’ and Net Operating Loss or Tax Credit carry-forwards that exist at the reporting date (Nelson, Spiceland and Sepe, 2011). This is similar to the definition of DTA stated in the Accounting Standards AASB 112 Paragraph 5. Temporary Differences arise when the events are recognized in one period in a bank’s book but are recognized in a different period on its tax return. To find Deferred Tax Assets (DTA), first find Tax Base (TB) by taking Carrying Amount (CA) less the Future Taxable Amount and adds Future Deductible Amount. Having TB larger than CA, there will be Deductible Temporary Difference (DTD), while having TB lesser than CA gives rise to Taxable Temporary Difference (TTD). By multiplying the DTD with the Tax Rate, DTA will be calculated. 2.0 Discussion 2.1 Provision for Product Warranty A Product Warranty is generally a guarantee from one party to another that a certain conditions or facts are true or will happen. A product warranty is a provision because when a product warranty is issued, there is a legal obligation and settlement is expected to result in an outflow of resources (McNicholas and...

...the deferred tax asset as the amount of income taxes recoverable in future periods in respect of deductible temporary differences, the carryforward of unused tax losses and the carryforward of unused tax credits. A deductible temporary difference occurs as a result of a difference between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the statement of the financial position and its tax base (Locke, C., 2004), in which the amount is deductible in determining taxable profit (tax loss) of future periods when the carrying amount is recovered or settled. In Surewin Ltd’s case, in terms of the accounting treatment using the accrual basis, the company recognises a product warranty expense in profit and loss for the year end from its provisions for product warranty. Whereas under the tax treatment which is cash based, the company is allowed to claim tax deductions only after it has paid out the warranty costs. There is a timing difference between when the warranty expense is recorded in the accounting books of the company (immediately) and when the liability is claimed and paid for in cash (in the future). Therefore, the difference in the carrying amount of the liabilities for product warranty in the balance sheet of the company and its tax base results in a future deductible amount. This amount is known as a deductible temporary difference, in which results in a deferred tax asset at a 30% tax rate. Part (b): Paragraph 24 outlines the recognition criteria for deferred tax asset...

...Case study of “Rigorous or Not?: A Case of Auditor Judgment for Deferred Tax Issues” Judgment Framework and Professional Judgment Discuss the importance of “judgment framing.” “Judgment framing” occurs early in the judgment process. The definition of framing follows: Frames are mental structures that we use, usually subconsciously, to simplify, organize, and guide our understanding of a situation. They shape our perspectives and determine the information that we will see as relevant or irrelevant, important or unimportant. Frames are a necessary aspect of judgment, but it is important to realize that our judgment frames provide only one particular perspective. The importance is that judgment framing question management’s perspective appropriately by viewing other frames and it is a foundation to professional skepticism. How do perceptual biases relate to judgment biases? Our eyes and related perceptual skills ordinarily are quite good at perceiving and helping us to accurately judge shape similarity. However, optical illusions can predictably and systematically fool our eyes. The judgment biases are similar to the perceptual ones, like there are times when our intuitive judgment falls prey to systematic traps and biases. What are the five steps in the judgment process? a. Clarify Issues & Objectives: To get at issues, ask “what is the problem to be solved?” To get at objectives ask “what is wanted or needed?” Ask “what” and “why” questions. b. Consider...

...University. In these studies, a child was offered a choice between one small reward (sometimes a marshmallow, but often a cookie or a pretzel, etc.) provided immediately or two small rewards if he or she waited until the experimenter returned (after an absence of approximately 15 minutes). In follow-up studies, the researchers found that children who were able to wait longer for the preferred rewards tended to have better life outcomes, as measured by SAT scores,[2] educational attainment,[3] body mass index (BMI)[4] and other life measures.[5] However, recent work calls into question whether self-control, as opposed to strategic reasoning, determines children's behavior. The purpose of the original study was to understand when the control of deferred gratification, the ability to wait to obtain something that one wants, develops in children. The original experiment took place at the Bing Nursery School located at Stanford University, using children age four to six as subjects. The children were led into a room, empty of distractions, where a treat of their choice (Oreo cookie, marshmallow, or pretzel stick) was placed on a table, by a chair.[1] The children could eat the marshmallow, the researchers said, but if they waited for fifteen minutes without giving in to the temptation, they would be rewarded with a second marshmallow.[1] Mischel observed as some would "cover their eyes with their hands or turn around so that they can't see the tray, others start kicking the desk, or tug on...

...John Palfrey, a former executive director of Harvard's Berkman Center for Internet & Society once stated, “Television did not transform education. Neither will the internet. But it will be another tool for teachers to use in their effort to reach students in the classroom. It will also be a means by which students learn outside the classroom” (pg. # if available – if not just put the period inside the quotations and delete all of this). Social media is so popularized today that it is finding its way into the classroom. It is available 24/7 on a variety of different devices and has the potential to aid in academic success, but it also holds a lot of setbacks (Alwagait, Shahzad, and Alim 1092). When there is a lack of balance between social media and real life, many problems can arise. Some of the problems include lack of time management, poor academic standing, and lack of self-control. In many instances one or more of these problems overlap. * Make the font type the same throughout paper- may just be showing up different on my computer for some reason Time management is paramount to a successful college experience; therefore, poor time management can in turn affect academic performance.

...Reflection Journal #5 (Chapter 10; pg. 251) Directions: Answer the prompt provided and answer an additional question from the guided journal questions in Chapter Ten on page 251 (please write the number of the question you chose). (5 Points) Prompt: #1. Analyze your self-discipline for college by answering the following: How difficult or easy is it for you to delay gratification (wait for a reward)? Accept responsibility? Balance between immediate and delayed gratification? Explain thoroughly and use examples for each question. I think it is not easy for me to delay gratification because I feel everything is like a mess. For example, I will travel to Paris tomorrow. I think if I prepare my luggage one or two day before the flight’s day, it is sooner. Thus, I decide to prepare them in the morning before my flight. However, when I arrive at airport, I forget something such as my wallet or my passport because I don’t have enough time to check again. Maybe, I put somewhere in my handbag or my baggage and I can’t remember. We have to accept responsibility when we delay gratification. We can’t blame for time or someone else. For instance, when I have exam next day, I don’t review lessons. I think it won’t be waste lots of time before the exam. Therefore, I will review them quickly before taking exam. To balance between immediate and delayed gratification, I think we know how to manage time. Which date and time should be priority? We will do it immediately. For example...

...Words to Live by; "My power lies in balance. I strive for equality and choose not to indulge in instant gratification at the expense of my purpose. I am responsible for my own decisions and take on only what I can handle based upon that which I value. I am empowered by choice and my asset is negotiation". Unfortunately, easier said than done. The power of peers always amazes me. I can have an absolute purpose in mind, and get me around several peers out for no good, and I become one of the pack. Becoming one of a pack can never have a good ending. It was going to be a boring Friday night. Just the thought of sitting at home watching some old rerun with my mom rubbed me the wrong way. But earlier, I had an invite from Jennifer to a birthday sleepover. At 17, I'm past the age for sleepovers but weighing my options, a sleepover didn't sound so immature. I found myself getting an address and saying I'll see you around 8. At home I get on Facebook to see who all is going to be there. The more I read, the more I know I shouldn't be attending this gathering. It has become more than a sleepover. The location has been moved to the house of some older boys who have graduated and are renting out a house referred to as the "party house". I know there will be no supervision, but this just makes it more interesting. I tell my mom, of course, it is still a sleepover for one of my friends birthday. I get her to drop me off before she has to go pick up my sister at...

Having inner experiences and impulses and still directing the energy and attention to the things that matter the most to you.

Willpower is like having three (3) powers I (will), I (wont), and I (want). I use me (will) and I (want) power the most and resist most of the temptations.

...M aking Sense of Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities Facebook (http://www.facebook.com /sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F %2Fquickbooks.intuit.com%2Fr%2Ftaxes%2Fmakingsense-of-deferred-tax-assets-and-liabilities) + POSTED IN TAXES (HTTP://QUICKBOOKS.INTUIT.COM/R/TAXES/) by Patricia Poladian (http://quickbooks.intuit.com/r/author /patriciapoladian/) on Jun 29, 2015 If you have your financial statements prepared for lenders or investors, your accountant may have noted deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities on your balance sheet. These assets and liabilities can directly affect your company’s cash flow for subsequent years, so it’s important to understand what yours represent and how likely you are to realize them. What Creates Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities The revenue and expenses you report on your income statement don’t always translate into income and deductions for tax purposes. Tax accounting and financial accounting have slightly different rules, which is why your business's taxable income isn’t always the same as the net income on your financial statements. Some of these instances result in permanent tax differences. For example, interest income from municipal bonds is excluded from taxable income, and half of meals and entertainment expense is always disallowed. Other differences are temporary. These differences have to do with timing. You’ll end up recognizing the income and expenses eventually, but you just may recognize them sooner under one system than you...
