Explanation of Solution

Deferred taxes arise in financial reports because of timing differences of some expenses. The same expenses are recorded for making tax filing purposes. For example, most of the companies use accelerated depreciation for the purpose of taxation, and the same companies will use straight line method for its reporting purpose.

Similarly, when taxable income of the company is more, then their amount of payment of tax is also higher. Actual taxes paid are based on tax filings. So, the difference between taxes shown as being paid in financial statements of the company and the taxes actually paid is recorded as deferred taxes. These taxes are shown on the right-side of company’s balance sheet.
