1. Assume that for a particular company the only temporary difference for tax-effect accounting purposes relates to the depreciation of a newly acquired machine. This machine is acquired on 1 July 2019 at a cost of $250, 000. Its useful life is considered to be five years, after which time it is expected to have no residual value. For tax purposes it can be fully depreciated over two years. The tax rate is assumed to be 30 per cent.

Required:

1. Determine whether the depreciation of the machine will lead to a deferred tax asset, or a deferred tax liability.
2. What would be the balance of the deferred tax asset or the deferred tax liability as at 30 June 2022?
