If Deferred Tax Liabilty Was Wrongly Recorded As Asset In The Earlie Year How To Correct The Same In Cur Year? |
In the earlier year there was a deferred tax liabilty but a villainous entry was made .i.e instead of crediting deferred tax liabilty P&l was wrongly credited and deferred tax asset was postulated a debit. now in the current year again there is a DTL . so should an error made by debiting DTA correct in the current year.
| Answer: Though VK has dedicated the right answer but this will distort the picture. It will be a good practice to give proper disclosure about the howler made in last year through notes to accounts as well. Please check if accounting standard supports such disclosure as "preceding period item" as well. CA. Deepak Bholusaria |
