As I was studying deferred taxes in Becker 6, I had a gut wrenching feeling that the MCQs were going to be brutal. But they turned out to be pretty simple- I got a 70+% the first time through which is pretty good for me!

For those who have taken FAR, would you say the difficulty is about the same for deferred taxes on the test as they were in Becker?

I used these formulas to answer most of the questions:

1120 pretax income > GAAP pretax income…then…GAAP tax expenses > 1120 tax expenses= deferred tax asset

GAAP pretax income > 1120 pretax income ….then…1120 tax expenses > GAAP tax expenses= deferred tax liability

AUD- 97 1x
REG- 81 1x
BEC- 79 1x
FAR- 88 1x

DONE!

In my 2 times taking FAR exam i dont remember getting tripped up with DT questions. I would say that the becker DT questions are more challenging than the actual exam. Make sure you master the topic though.

REG. Jan 2015 79 half way there!!
BEC. Feb 2015 79 thank you God!!
AUD. Apr 20, 2015 and will be done. Hold that thought 65, 7/14/15 85!

Funny, I just studied that topic with Roger and I learned it with the accounting “T” in that way I could understand the topic more than memorize formulas, and even at the end, when determining the current income tax liability with strange concepts, I had to connect all the dots to understand some “additions/deductions” for some questions in the WTB, that i never heard before. So far was good.

Tomorrow I will complete Cash Flows and will be the same, throuth the “T” 😀 I think I learn better in that way

Good luck!

Most of the MCQs you'll experience around Deferred Taxes relate to being able to identify permanent vs. temporary differences. If you know those, then you should be fine.
