Tax effect
- The tax effect module is used to calculate the tax balances for use in the tax notes (income tax expense, deferred tax asset, deferred tax liability, provision for income tax, etc)
- This is purposely done on a simplified basis, including a single tax rate, and may not be suitable where complicated tax calculations are involved
Mode
- Auto: populates many of the gross numbers in deferred tax asset, based on the Chart of Accounts values in the report. The calculation icon on the right side identifies what allocations were used for each item
- Manual: means all gross numbers are manually entered
Deferred tax recognised
- If Deferred tax recognised is set to Yes, then the movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability will appear in the provision for income tax
