Statutory Tax Rates
The
Current Tax Rate
and
Ending Deferred Tax Rate
for the specified unit are used for all unit specific reports. These rates are also taken into account for Federal Benefit of State (FBOS) calculations when working with state data.
If the
Current Tax Rate
and the
Ending Deferred Rate
differ for the unit, the system automatically calculates the necessary impact of the rate difference for Activity entered for temporary differences. The impact of the rate difference can be viewed in the Effective Tax Rate report.
If the
Beginning Deferred Rate
and
Ending Deferred Rate
differ for a unit, the system automatically calculates any necessary change in rate adjustment on beginning temporary difference balances. Support for the calculated adjustment appears in a separate column within the Deferred Balances report.
FX Rates (1 RPT equals ?)
Enter the specific Beginning and Ending Spot rates for a unit for the period covered by the dataset in the
Beginning Spot
and
Ending Spot
fields. Enter the rate using the ratio of what 1 unit of the reporting currency would equal in the local currency. The Beginning and Ending Spot rate is used to convert entries for the unit that have a Balance Sheet provision impact.
Deferred Provision Only Adjustment
The adjustment to the deferred tax provision expense is a separate line item on the tax provision report. It impacts the Effective Tax rate. The deferred expense amount does not have a related deferred tax asset or liability associated with it.
Be sure to use this field appropriately, because additional support may be required to justify the expense on the provision.
