    I think you'll find that Corporation tax should appear in both. A debit as an expense in the p&l for the year, and then a credit on the balance sheet as a liability at the year end. <BR><BR>When the tax is paid presumable in the next year you will net the payment off against the balance sheet entry (CT paid), thus debit the b/s with CT paid and credit paid (Bank)<BR><BR>Does this answer your question?<BR><BR>Regards

    Think of CT as a Balance sheet item. In your T a/c put the brought forward figure, the carry forward, as calculated i.e. current charge plus any other amounts owing, cash paid etc., the balancing figure is then taken to the P/L account. Ignore over/under accrual unless it is needed for an explanation of the tax charge in the notes (it will drop out automatically)
