Cue Energy Resources Limited Annual Report 2024

Cue Energy Resources Limited Notes to the financial statements 30 June 2024 Note 8. Income tax expense (continued) 43 Accounting policy for Income tax The income tax expense for the year is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses. Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the reporting date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity. Cue Energy Resources Limited (the ‘head entity’) and its wholly-owned Australian controlled entities have formed an income tax consolidated group under the tax consolidation regime effective 1 July 2010. Cue Taranaki Pty Ltd is subject to the provisions of its Petroleum Mining Permit (the Permit) which, in conjunction with the Minerals Programme for Petroleum (1995) Act and Crown Minerals (Royalties for Petroleum) Regulations 2013 (collectively the Legislation), defines the basis of provisional royalty payments made each reporting period. The provisions of the Permit define a hybrid royalty system whereby the minimum royalty payment, is the higher of 5% of revenues or 20% of the provisional accounting profit (APR), as defined in the legislation. The Consolidated Entity recognises the minimum royalty payment as a royalty expense, included in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as production costs, with any excess of the APR over the minimum royalty payment presented as an income tax expense, in accordance with AASB 112. At 30 June 2024 a deferred tax asset of $5.02 million and a deferred tax liability of $2.45 million have been recognised in respect of the application of the terms of the Legislation to timing differences arising between the recognition and measurement criteria in the Legislation and the application of Australian Accounting Standards. These deferred tax balances are in addition to balances recognised on temporary timing differences generated through the application of the respective corporate income tax legislation in the jurisdictions in which the Consolidated Entity operates.
