Corporation completed a loss carryback.
Resulted in $3,000.00 refund. Corporation received refund.
Tax provision for the current year: $1,500.00.
Previously when I’ve been in a tax situation like this the tax amount owing in the current year is greater than the refund amount from a loss carry back which leaves the net corporate tax expense amount positive.
However, in this situation, net corporate tax expense is -1,500.00 (1500-3000).
JE:
DT Cash $3,000.00
CT Corporate income tax expense $3,000.00
T2:
S125 GIFI 9990 Current income taxes: -1,500.
Does anyone forsee this being an issue specifically on the T2?
