当期税(当期所得税):会计与税务术语,指企业就本期应税利润(或应税亏损)按税法计算出的、当期应缴或可退的所得税金额。常与 deferred tax(递延所得税) 相对。
/ˈkʌrənt tæks/
The company recorded current tax of $2 million this year.
公司今年确认了200万美元的当期所得税。
Current tax is calculated using tax law, while deferred tax reflects temporary differences between accounting and taxable profits.
当期所得税依据税法计算,而递延所得税反映会计利润与应税利润之间的暂时性差异。
current 源自拉丁语 currere(“奔跑、流动”),引申为“当前的、当期的”;tax 源自拉丁语 taxare(“评定、征税”)。在财务报告语境中,current tax 逐渐固定为术语,用来区分“本期应缴的税”与“因暂时性差异在未来期间才体现的税(递延税)”。
