Question 5.
Robert August Ltd commences operations on 1 July 2016. On the same date, it purchases a fiberglassing machine at a cost of $600,000. The machine is expected to have a useful life of four years, with benefits being uniform throughout its life. It will have no residual value at the end of four years. Hence, for accounting purposes, the depreciation expense would be $150,000 per year. For taxation purposes, the ATO allows the company to depreciate the asset over three years - that is, $200,000 per year. The tax rate is 30 percent.
Determine the deferred tax liability and/or deferred tax asset that will result and record the necessary journal entry on 2017.
