Incorrect.
Deferred tax balances result from temporary differences between a company’s income as reported for tax purposes and income reported for financial statement purposes. The temporary difference in this case arises from the difference between the depreciation for accounting purposes and the depreciation for tax purposes. Because of this difference, the company would report more income tax expense than would actually be paid in taxes. The difference is a deferred tax liability.
Temporary difference balance = Depreciation expense for accounting purposes – Depreciation for tax purposes
£6,340 – £4,500
£1,840
Deferred tax balance =
Temporary difference balance × Corporate tax rate
£1,840 × 25%
£460

No, it clearly states that the accounting expenses are not deductible for tax purposes. A deductible expense is one you can subtract from your taxable gross income. Deductible expenses reduce your tax liability. A non-deductible expense, on the other hand, does not impact your tax bill.
