    Deferred tax and prepaid income tax

    Hi

    I am at a bit of a cross road concerning the treatment of prepaid tax in terms of deferred tax.

    Data:
    Prepaid tax R600 000 as at FYE 30 June 2018

    Question:
    How to account for the deferred tax in the current year’s quarterly financial statements ending 30 September 2018 taking into consideration the prepaid tax carrying value of R600 000 form the prior FY.

    Option 1
    Include the R600 000 as an asset in the deferred tax balance computation

    *correction DT asset should be DT liability

    Option 2
    Include the tax value (R600 000 x 28%) in the tax reconciliation note.

    :/ Is the R600k provisional tax or are you referring to an actual prepaid expense?
