(Explain Future Taxable and Deductible Amounts, How Carryback and Carryforward Affects Deferred Taxes) Maria Rodriquez and Lynette Kingston are discussing accounting for income taxes. They are currently studying a schedule of taxable and deductible amounts that will arise in the future as a result of existing temporary differences. The schedule is as follows.

Future Years
	2017	2018	2019	2020	2021
Taxable income	\(850,000
Taxable amounts		\)375,000	\(375,000	\)375,000	$375,000
Deductible amounts				(2,400,000)
Enacted tax rate	50%	45%	40%	35%	30%

Instructions

1. Explain the concept of future taxable amounts and future deductible amounts as illustrated in the schedule.
2. How do the carryback and carryforward provisions affect the reporting of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities?

Income tax is the tax levied on the earnings of the citizens of the country in direct proportion.

The future taxable amount grows in subsequent years, resulting in the recording of deferred tax liability. On the other hand, future deductible amounts reduce coming years' taxable income, resulting in a deferred tax asset recording.

For deferred tax implications owing to future taxable amounts anticipated, a deferred tax obligation should be recorded, and for future deductible amounts scheduled, a deferred tax asset should be recorded.

A company's deferred tax assets and liabilities will differ based on its carryback and carry-forward provisions.

The appropriate legislated tax rate is applied to future taxable and deductible items attributable to transitory differences existing at the statement of financial position date for computing deferred tax account balances to be reported at an idea of financial position date. To establish the appropriate tax rate, it must make assumptionsthat the entity will report taxable income or losses in the different future years affected by the current temporary variances.

As a result, due to existing temporal disparities, you compute the taxes payable or refundable in the future. You use the provisions of the tax legislation and the enacted tax rates for the relevant periods when performing these computations.Using a net operating loss to offset future taxable gains is allowed up to 20 years in the future.
