Hi @jazzies123
Tax Payable is £16,700
Tax Paid is £14,900
A difference of £1,800
Estimated Tax Liability is £17,300
£17,300 less £1,800 = £15,500
It say's the agreed corporation tax bill in respect of the profits for year ended 20 June 20X0 has been settled in full.
Therefore we need to take out the £1,800 as it has been accounted for as the tax bill was paid in full.
Hope this makes sense
