Solution

To calculate the income tax expense for Able Ltd for the year, we need to follow these steps:

  1. Calculate the income tax payable: The income tax payable is calculated by applying the corporate tax rate to the taxable income. In this case, the taxable income is 400,000andthetaxrateis30400,000 and the tax rate is 30%. So, the income tax payable would be 30% of 400,000, which equals $120,000.

  2. Adjust for changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities: According to AASB112, changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities should be recognized in the income tax expense. In this case, there was an increase in deferred tax asset of 80,000andadecreaseindeferredtaxliabilityof80,000 and a decrease in deferred tax liability of 30,000. So, we subtract these amounts from the income tax payable. 120,000120,000 - 80,000 + 30,000=30,000 = 70,000.

  3. Adjust for the tax effect of the gain on revaluation of plant: The gain on revaluation of plant is a taxable event and its tax effect should be recognized in the income tax expense. The tax effect is calculated by applying the tax rate to the gain. In this case, the gain is 90,000andthetaxrateis3090,000 and the tax rate is 30%. So, the tax effect would be 30% of 90,000, which equals 27,000.Weaddthisamounttotheincometaxexpense.27,000. We add this amount to the income tax expense. 70,000 + 27,000=27,000 = 97,000.

So, based on the information provided and assuming a corporate tax rate of 30%, Able Ltd's income tax expense for the year would be $97,000.

Please note that this is a simplified calculation and actual tax calculations can be more complex, depending on the specific tax laws and regulations in your jurisdiction. Always consult with a tax professional or accountant for accurate tax calculations.
