For many years the IRS has been demanding taxpayers with foreign financial accounts to be in compliance with the law. The FBAR is an informational return that was designed to fight the tax avoidance. The law requires a US person to file the FBAR if the US person has a financial interest or signature authority in a bank account located in a foreign country and the combined value of all foreign financial accounts is $10,000 or higher during any day of the calendar year. A US person is a US Citizen, US resident, US entity incorporated in the US and formed under the US law.

There presents some positive evidence to avoid the recording of valuation allowance. First, Packer, Inc has a profitable operation history from 1995 to 1997, despite a significant loss in 1994. This is agreed by FASB, which states that a “strong earnings history coupled with evidence indicating that the loss (for example, an unusual, infrequent, or extraordinary item) is an aberration rather than a continuing condition” is a piece of positive evidence (FASB 740-10-30-22).

The question then becomes how to best reflect those economic consequences in the financial statements. Inter-period income tax allocation considers the tax consequences of transaction events such as revenue, expenses, gains, and losses and associates these items with the period in which these events are recognized. In other words, inter-period tax allocation is consistent with the basic tenets of accrual accounting. Underlying this method is the understanding that there is a direct economic relationship between identifiable transactions reflected in the financial statements and related income tax effects (Arthur et al., 1984). Therefore, each transaction has a tax effect.

Transactions such as Purchases and sales are recorded in the period given under accruals concept.
