Cindy Frank, BDO USA OVERVIEW OF ASC 740 AND RELATED GUIDANCE
FAS 109/ASC 740 Objectives Recognize: 1. The amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year 2. Deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences 9
Basic Principles • A current tax liability or asset is recognized for the estimated taxes payable or refundable on tax returns for the current year. • A deferred tax liability or asset is recognized for estimated future taxes created by temporary differences. • The measurement of current and deferred taxes is based on the provisions of the enacted tax law. • Measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced if they will not be recognized. • These principles apply to domestic federal income taxes, and foreign and state and local taxes that are based on income. 10
Components Of Income Tax Expense Current income tax expense (benefit) +/- Deferred income tax expense (benefit) = Total income tax expense (benefit) 11
Current Income Tax Expense Item Amount Pre-tax book income $1,000,000 Permanent differences 100,000 Financial taxable income $1,100,000 Temporary differences 200,000 Taxable income per return $1,300,000 Tax rate 40% Tax liability (current portion of tax expense) $520,000 This example replicates a typical tax return expense calculation and represents only the current portion of income tax expense. Without FAS 109/ASC 740 principles, our tax expense would be $520,000. 12
Deferred Tax Expense • SFAS 109 requires the balance sheet approach to compute deferred taxes. To compute the deferred expense, you must compare the • beginning balance of temporary differences to their ending balance. • Temporary difference treatment in FAS 109/ASC 740 smoothens out the rate; there is no impact on book tax expense. 13
Components Of Total Expense Permanent differences: Arise from income that is permanently non-taxable and • expense items are permanently non-deductible Affect either the financial statements or the tax • return, but not both • Will always increase or decrease your effective tax rate • Will either cost tax dollars or save tax dollars 14
Current Income Tax Expense Item Amount Pre-tax book income $1,000,000 Permanent differences 100,000 Financial taxable income $1,100,000 Temporary differences 200,000 Taxable income per return $1,300,000 Tax rate 40% Tax liability (current portion of tax expense) $520,000 15
Permanent Differences Item Amount Pre-tax book income $1,000,000 Permanent differences • Meals and entertainment 50,000 • Fines and penalties 40,000 • Lobbying expenses 10,000 Total permanent differences $100,000 Financial taxable income $1,100,000 16
Permanent Differences (Cont.) Item Amount Permanent differences • Meals and entertainment 50,000 • Fines and penalties 40,000 • Lobbying expenses 10,000 Total permanent differences $100,000 Tax rate 40% Tax impact of permanent items $40,000 17
Permanent Differences (Cont.) Permanent differences will always affect your rate. Item Amount Pre-tax book income $1,000,000 Tax rate 40% Expected tax expense $400,000 Tax related to permanent items 40,000 Total expected tax expense $440,000 Effective tax rate = 440,000/1,000,000 = 44% (this is a short method of testing the rate) 18
Components Of Total Expense Temporary differences: Will generally have no impact on your effective tax rate • Are book/tax differences that will be deductible or • taxable in one or more future years Will either cost tax dollars or save tax dollars in the • current year, and will have the opposite effect in a future year 19
