21 October 2013 A deferred tax liability occurs when taxable income is smaller than the income reported on the income statements. This is a result of the accounting difference of certain income and expense accounts. This is only a temporary difference.
The most common reason behind deferred tax liability is the use of different depreciation methods for financial reporting.

A deferred tax asset is the opposite of a deferred tax liability.
Deferred tax assets are reductions in future taxes payable, because the company has already paid the taxes on book income to be recognized in the future (like a prepaid tax).
