| kalps | Municipal bond interest is exempt I assume ? It results in a permanent difference |
| sarath | Municipal bond interest is recognized as income for financial reporting and not for tax return. So it results in permanent difference. No deferred taxes... |
| mirfanrana | permanent differences do not result in deffered taxes. |
| Khadria | However, capital gains that occur when the bond is sold or at the time of maturity (if the bond was bought at a discount) are not exempt from any taxes. |
I am happy to say that I passed! Your study notes certainly helped prepare me for what was the most difficult exam I had ever taken.
