Temporary Difference
Temporary difference refers to the difference of one income recognized by the tax rules and accounting rules of a company in different periods. Consequently the difference between the amount of assets and liabilities reported in the financial reports and the amount of assets and liabilities as per the company’s tax records, is known as temporary difference.
Deferred tax account shows the amount of reconciliation, which occurs due to the difference between the income tax expense account and the income tax payable account.
When the Income Tax Expense account i.e. the estimated income tax amount is more than the outstanding amount of income tax i.e. the Income Tax Payable account, the difference is to be debited to Deferred Tax Asset account.
When the Income Tax Expense account i.e. the estimated income tax amount is less than the outstanding amount of income tax i.e. the Income Tax Payable account, the difference is to be credited to Deferred Tax Liability account.
