e/Provision (accounting)

Information
has glosseng: In financial accounting, provision is a word that creates an ambiguous account title. In U.S. GAAP, provision means an expense, while in IFRS, International Financial Reporting Standards, it means a liability. So, in the U.S., Provision for Income Taxes means the same thing as Income Tax Expense, while under IFRS, Provision for Income Taxes means Liability for Income Taxes Payable. Another examples is provisions for warranty costs [expense in the US and liability in IFRS]. Sometimes in IFRS, but not in US GAAP, the term reserve is used instead of term provision; such a use, however, is inconsistent with the terminology suggested by International Accounting Standards Board. Reserve, which see, is the worst word in all of accounting as it connotes a debit balance to non-professionals but in accounting always means an account with a credit balance. Reserve for Warranties means estimated liability for future warranty repairs and replacements, NOT a pool of cash set aside for the firm to use in making repairs.
