kalps Intraperiod tax allocation ----> allocating taxes between different lines on the income sttaement.
achu Choice B- Because certain revenues and expenses appear in the financial statements but are excluded from taxable income- is more suitable to describe DTA's and DTL's.
johntan1979 How does this differ from interperiod tax allocation?
Seancfa1 Intra is inside/within the same entity - eg: intranet or intra-comany transfer.

Inter is between/among - eg: internet, international, interpreter (someone who translates BETWEEN languages).
Seancfa1 Therefore, intra in this sense applies to within 1 period.

Inter applies between periods (multiple periods).
