...Chapter 16 Accounting for Income Taxes Questions for Review of Key Topics Question 16-1 Income tax expense is comprised of both the current and the deferred tax consequences of events and transactions already recognized. Specifically, it includes (a) the income tax that is payable currently and (b) the change in the deferred tax liability (or asset). Apparently, in the situation described, temporary differences required a $4.4 million increase in the deferred tax liability, a $4.4 million decrease in the deferred tax asset, or some combination of the two. Question 16-2 Temporary differences between the reported amount of an asset or liability in the financial statements and its tax basis are primarily caused by revenues, expenses, gains, and losses being included in taxable income in a year earlier or later than the year in which they are recognized for financial reporting purpose, although there are other, less common, events that can cause these temporary differences. Some temporary differences create deferred tax liabilities because they result in taxable amounts in some future year(s) when the related assets are recovered or the related liabilities are settled (when the temporary differences reverse). An example is the receivable created when installment sale gross profit is recognized for financial reporting purposes. When this asset is recovered, taxable amounts are produced because the installment sale gross profit is then recognized for tax purposes...
