1. During Year 2, Lila-Droid acquired land from the Planet Lila Council. Lila-Droid is not entitled to a
deduction on the cost of land, even upon its disposal.
2. The equipment has a tax written down value of L$ 850 at the end of year 2 due to differences in
depreciation (accounting: straight-line; tax: accelerated declining balance). Lila-Droid intends to
recover the economic benefits of the equipment through use. At the start of Year 2, Lila-Droid
recognised a deferred tax liability of 300 on equipment.
3. During Year 2, Lila-Droid decides to sell a wholly-owned subsidiary, Lila-Industrial, and therefore
classifies it as held for sale in accordance with IFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and
Discontinued Operations. Previously, no deferred tax was recognised between the carrying
amount and tax base of the investment in Lila-Industrial. Lila-Droid can deduct the original cost of
the investment of L$ 1,500 against the selling price.
4. The balance of the warranty provision discussed above. At the start of Year 2, Lila-Droid
recognised a deferred tax asset of 225 on the warranty provision.
During Year 2, the Planet Lila Council announced plans to decrease the tax rate for capital gains from
15% to 12.5%. However, the tax rate is enacted only once signed by Mrs. Lila, and it is not yet clear
whether she will sign the tax rate into effect.
Generally, Lila-Droid is highly profitable and current forecasts indicate that profitability will be
maintained for the foreseeable future.
