They are quite surprised at the impact on the provision caused by changes in accountingstandards such as IFRS1 ‘First time adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards’ and IFRS2 ‘Share-basedPayment’. Panel is adopting International Financial Reporting Standards for the first time as at 31 October 2005 andthe directors are unsure how the deferred tax provision will be calculated in its financial statements ended on thatdate including the opening provision at 1 November 2003.Required:(a) (i) Explain how changes in accounting standards are likely to have an impact on the provision for deferredtaxation under IAS12 ‘Income Taxes’.

Local tax law allows a tax deduction at the exercise date of the intrinsic value of the options.The intrinsic value of the ten million share options at 31 October 2004 was $16 million and at 31 October 2005was $46 million. The increase in the share price in the year to 31 October 2005 could not be foreseen at31 October 2004. The options were exercised at 31 October 2005. The directors are unsure how to accountfor deferred taxation on this transaction for the years ended 31 October 2004 and 31 October 2005.(ii) Panel is leasing plant under a finance lease over a five year period. The asset was recorded at the present valueof the minimum lease payments of $12 million at the inception of the lease which was 1 November 2004. Theasset is depreciated on a straight line basis over the five years and has no residual value. The annual leasepayments are $3 million payable in arrears on 31 October and the effective interest rate is 8% per annum. Thedirectors have not leased an asset under a finance lease before and are unsure as to its treatment for deferredtaxation. The company can claim a tax deduction for the annual rental payment as the finance lease does notqualify for tax relief.(iii) A wholly owned overseas subsidiary, Pins, a limited liability company, sold goods costing $7 million to Panel on1 September 2005, and these goods had not been sold by Panel before the year end. Panel had paid $9 millionfor these goods. The directors do not understand how this transaction should be dealt with in the financialstatements of the subsidiary and the group for taxation purposes.
