ron10590MemberCan someone help me understand this question?
Bart, Inc., a newly organized corporation, uses the equity method of accounting for its 30% investment in Rex Co.'s common stock. During year 1, Rex paid dividends of $300,000 and reported earnings of $900,000. In addition:
The dividends received from Rex are eligible for the 80% Dividends received deductions.
All the undistributed earnings of Rex will be distributed in future years.
There are no other temporary differences.
Bart's year 1 income tax rate is 30%
The enacted income tax rate after year 1 is 25%.
In bart's december 31, year 1 balance sheet, the deferred income tax liability should be: answer 9,000

ron10590MemberI'm confused because I thought equity method dividends are not recognized as book income, just a reduction in the investment account… and equity method earnings are not recognized in taxable income… therefore they should both be permanent differences

ron10590Member“The deferred income tax liability is the result of the undistributed earnings of an equity investee, which are expected to be distributed as dividends in future periods. For accounting purposes, investment revenue is 270,000 (900,000×30%). For tax purposes, dividend revenue is 90,000 (300,000×30%), which will be partially offset by the 80% dividends received deductions. Because of this 80% deduction, the difference (270,000-90,000 = 180,000} is partially a permanent difference (80%x180,000=144,000 which will never be subject to taxes) and partially a temporary difference (20%x180,000=36,000) which will be taxable in future years). This future taxable amount of 36,000 will become taxable after 2010, when the expected tax rate is 25%. Therefore, the deferred tax liability is 90,000 (25%x36,000).
DR Income tax expense-deferred 9,000
CR deferred tax liability 9,000

rosssumner15MemberThe explanation sounds like the dividends are not taxable income. To calculate the future taxable amount, you lower investment income by the dividends you receive. Then you use the difference to come up with the future taxable amount, which is still the investment revenue. Dividends are never showing up as taxable. Does that make sense? It's really confusing.

Determined CPAParticipantMetro General is a municipally owned and operated hospital and a component unit of Metro City. Where should the information for Metro General be presented in the government-wide financial statements?
answer
In the component units column after the primary government totals
explanation: Data of discretely presented component units should be displayed in the government-wide statement of activities and statement of net position in columns to the right or after the primary government information. The focus of the government-wide financial statements should be on the primary government. Separate columns distinguish the primary government and its discretely presented component units. Discretely presented component units are not in substance part of the primary government. This contrasts with the presentation of blended component unit data, which is included within the primary government information because blended component units are, in substance, part of the primary government.
what type of fund is this? is this not an enterprise fund?

Used Becker online. Who needs a text when you can burn your eyes out staring at the screen for months on end?
"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't how hard you're hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done!"
