    @mckan514w – I took the dog (and a neighbor) out for a 45-minute walk. It's COLD here (hovering around freezing) so it was brisk in speed and brisk in temperature! I'm a bit more alert but still find myself reaching for anything else but the study materials. MUST. RESIST. PROCRASTINATION. Only five more days…

    I think I'm approaching burnout. I've been putting in about 4 hrs/day during the week and two full days every weekend since Christmas, and took all of this week off to study every day. I am SO sick of reviewing this material – but I'm still learning things I didn't know or reinforcing things I “want” to forget!

    Anyone else struggling with the whole Deferred Inflows-with-liabilities and Deferred Outflows-with-Assets concept in Governmental? I just found a really straightforward explanation with examples – really helped me!

    On January 2, Year 1, Ross Co. purchased a machine for $70,000. This machine has a 5-year useful life, a residual value of $10,000, and is depreciated using the straight-line method for financial statement purposes. For tax purposes, depreciation expense was $25,000 for Year 1 and $20,000 for Year 2. Ross' Year 2 income, before income taxes and depreciation expense, was $100,000 and its tax rate was 30%. If Ross had made no estimated tax payments during Year 2, what amount of current income tax liability would Ross report in its December 31, Year 2, balance sheet?
    a.$25,800
    b.$22,500
    c.$24,000 CORRECT
    d.$26,400

    I thought the temporary difference is the difference between tax and book depreciation. Why are they using the entire 20 year 2 depreciation to calculate the current yr2 tax liability?

    @aatoural

    Hang on, thought I had it but I didn't…

    @aatoural – Yes, I did have it. They aren't asking for Deferred Tax Liability – they are asking for CURRENT tax liablity. So

    100,000
    (20,000)
    ——–
    80,000 = currently taxable income
    x 30%
    ——-
    24,000 = current income tax payable.
