Tax Provision

A tax provision is an accounting estimate made to record a company’s expected tax liability for a specific period. It ensures that income tax expenses align with the revenues earned during that time. The provision is adjusted once the actual tax amount is determined, maintaining compliance and accurate financial reporting.
