Income tax
10.1 Distinguish the following terms: accounting profit, assessable
income, allowable deductions and taxable income.
The terms are discussed on page 234:
Accounting profit: The profit or loss reported in financial reports. It is the difference between
the revenues and expenses recognised in the comprehensive profit statement for the reporting
period. Recognition depends on the criteria in the Framework and the requirements of various
accounting standards. This should not be confused with pre-tax accounting profit (loss).
Pre-tax accounting profit (loss): Also called profit before (income) tax expense (revenue). It
is the difference between the revenues and expenses (other than income tax expense or
income tax revenue) recognised in the comprehensive profit statement of the reporting period.
Recognition, excluding income tax, also depends on the criteria in the Framework and the
requirements of various accounting standards. It is called accounting profit in AASB 112, and
can be described as the profit or loss before income tax, a term to be contrasted with taxable
income – the amount on which income tax is determined under Australian income tax rules
(called taxable profit or tax loss in AASB 112).
Assessable income: Equivalent, under income tax legislation, of revenue (see glossary). It is
sometimes referred to as tax revenue, that is revenue for taxation purposes. This meaning of
tax revenue must not be confused with a negative income tax expense (the second meaning
given in the glossary) (in AASB 112 the term tax income is used).
Allowable deduction: Equivalent, under income tax legislation, of an expense (see glossary).
It is called a tax deduction in AASB 112. It can also be described as a tax expense, which
must not be confused with income tax expense (called tax expense in AASB 112).
Taxable income: Under Australian taxation rules, the profit determined in accordance with
those rules. A term to be contrasted with pre-tax accounting profit (see glossary). In this
context, ‘taxation’ is limited to income tax and taxes that are similar to income tax such as
capital gains tax.
10.2 Explain how differences arise between taxable income and accounting
profit.
The main difference is that taxable income does not include an equivalent of income tax expense
(revenue) whereas accounting profit does include it. However, pre-tax accounting profit can differ
from taxable income for the reasons listed on pages 236–238 – particularly table 10.1. Recall that in
our general discussion we use the term income tax expense rather than tax expense, but when
dealing with AASB 112, for simplicity we use the term tax expense that is adopted in that standard.

Chapter 10: Income tax 2
Some items of revenue and expense are, under specific accounting standard requirements, excluded
from the profit or loss statement – they are recognised as other comprehensive profit. The income
tax expense included in a profit or loss statement reflects only those items of revenue or expense
that are included in that profit or loss statement. It is important to remember that here we are
discussing the general nature of income tax in Australia, not the requirements of AASB 112, so we
use the term income tax. In Australia the income tax assessment is either positive or zero, so there is
no such thing as income tax revenue – tax losses and credits cannot result in a negative amount of
tax. Also, the accounting profit does not include amounts excluded from comprehensive profit by
AASB 132.35 – that are deducted from equity instead. These excluded expenses related to
transactions with equity holders in their capacity as equity holders (see chapters 4 and 12).
Differences arise because items of revenue and expense which are recognised for accounting
purposes are different (in terms of deductibility and assessability and the timing thereof, and the
locus of recognition) from those applicable for tax purposes. These differences can be described as
timing differences (ones that relate to timing) and permanent differences (that relate to deductibility
or assessability and how recognised). Locus of recognition is concerned with whether items of
revenue or expense are included in determining period profit or loss, or are recognised as other
comprehensive profit, or when AASB 132.35 applies are recognised as a deduction from equity.
10.3 List four examples of common causes for differences between taxable
income and accounting profit.
Common examples are listed in table 10.1 on page 237. Some additional differences are noted in
example 10.2. Generally, for tax purposes a cash basis rather than an accrual basis is adopted;
however, there are some important exceptions, for example depreciable assets, sales revenue and
wages and salaries, which are recognised on an accrual basis.
Deductible temporary differences: Under the balance sheet method, a temporary difference
between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the balance sheet and its tax base that
will result in amounts that are deductible in determining taxable profit (tax loss) of future
periods – that is, decrease (increase) the tax payable – when the carrying amount of the asset
or liability is recovered or settled (in a future reporting period). (AASB 112.5)
A comprehensive list of examples can be found in Appendix A of AASB 112, which should be
consulted for a full explanation. Note that these examples are generic and some may be inapplicable
in Australia.

Chapter 10: Income tax 3
Taxable temporary difference: Under the balance sheet method, temporary differences that
will result in taxable amounts in determining taxable profit (tax loss) of future periods – that
is, produce an increase (decrease) in the income tax payable (recoverable) – in future
reporting periods when the carrying amount of the asset or liability is recovered or settled.
A comprehensive list of examples can be found in Appendix 1 of AASB 112, which should be
consulted for a full explanation. Note that these examples are generic and some may be inapplicable
in Australia.
10.6 Under AASB 112, three aspects of tax expense are dealt with: current
tax expense, deferred tax expense and tax expense. Explain the
meaning of each term and the relationship between them.
The terms deferred tax expense and tax expense are defined in the glossary as follows:
Copyright © 2010 Peter Jubb, Stephen Haswell and Ian Langfield-Smith Version 5.0
Chapter 10: Income tax 4
2 for deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets first recognised in prior reporting
periods, changes in their amount occurring in the current reporting period (excludes
those arising from translation of deferred tax liabilities and assets of foreign operations).
Tax expense (tax revenue): The aggregate amount included in the determination of profit or
loss for the period in respect of current income tax and deferred income tax. Tax expense
(revenue) comprises current tax expense (current tax revenue) and deferred tax expense
(deferred tax revenue). (AASB 112.5, AASB 112.6)
Since the components of the tax expense (revenue) are allocated to either period profit or loss or to
other comprehensive profit (and sometimes as a deduction from equity when required by AASB
132.35), the tax expense (revenue) has the same allocation.
Current tax expense (revenue) is not included in the glossary and it is not defined in AASB 112.
However, it is clear from AASB 112.6 that current tax expense (revenue) is the expense (revenue)
that corresponds to current tax, and current tax is defined as ‘the amount of income taxes payable
(recoverable) in respect of the taxable profit (tax loss) for a period’. It is the amount of income tax
payable (refundable) in respect of the taxable income for a reporting period. The amount payable
(refundable) equals the taxable amount (tax loss) multiplied by the tax rate. Therefore, it must be
the amount of the expected income tax assessment and the expected income tax payable for the
reporting period. Under Australian income tax rules income tax refunds (other than when
instalments paid exceed income tax payable) occur rarely.
The definition of tax expense (revenue) explains the relationship between the terms.
Under AASB 112 current tax expense is the amount of tax payable for the period, and it is equal to
the amount of current tax. The current tax is defined as ‘the amount of income taxes payable
(recoverable) in respect of the taxable profit (tax loss) for a period’, where taxable profit is ‘the
profit (loss) for a period, determined in accordance with the rules established by the taxation
authorities, upon which income taxes are payable (recoverable)’ (AASB 112.5). Since income tax
rules do not distinguish between items that, for accounting purposes, are either included in period
profit or loss or recognised as other comprehensive profit, the current tax expense apparently
corresponds to the amount of income tax expected to be assessed for a period. The definition of
current tax also includes amounts recognised as a deduction from equity under AASB 132.35
(discussed in chapters 4 and 12). This situation is made clear in AASB 112.58, which provides:
Copyright © 2010 Peter Jubb, Stephen Haswell and Ian Langfield-Smith Version 5.0
Chapter 10: Income tax 5
Current and deferred tax shall be recognised as income or an expense and included in profit or
loss for the period, except to the extent that the tax arises from:
(a) a transaction or event which is recognised, in the same or a different period, outside profit
or loss, either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity (see paragraphs 61A to
65); or
(b) a business combination (see paragraphs 66 to 68).
This means that current tax is not solely attributable to period profit or loss.
The conceptual basis of the balance sheet method of tax effect accounting is said to be the need to
recognise the future tax consequences of events and transactions recognised in the reporting period
as reflected in the balance sheet. It results from the carrying amount of an asset or a liability
differing from its tax base. It is assumed that, whenever there is a difference between the carrying
amount and tax base, we have a temporary difference and must recognise a deferred tax asset
(DTA) if it is a deductible temporary difference and a deferred tax liability (DTL) if it is a taxable
temporary difference. (Although this is the conceptual basis for the treatment in AASB 112, in
some circumstances the standard prohibits the recognition of a DTA or a DTL notwithstanding the
presence of a temporary difference.)
It can be questioned if DTLs meet the definition of a liability under the Framework (see chapter 3),
as it is doubtful that the entity is under a present obligation. Also, the mandatory recognition of
DTLs despite the recognition criteria in the Framework undercuts the conceptual foundations, as do
the numerous exceptions to the recognition of DTLs (for example, those arising from non-
deductible goodwill). For DTAs there is doubt about both the existence of the requisite past
transaction or event and the ability to control the future economic benefits comprising the DTA, as
well as problems in the application of the Framework recognition criteria (which are substantially
the same as those in AASB 112).
10.9 Is the recognition of deferred tax assets under AASB 112 consistent
with the definition and recognition criteria of assets in the
Framework? Give reasons to support your answer.
We do not believe that the recognition of DTAs is consistent with the definition and recognition
criteria for assets under the Framework. First, it is doubtful that the entity has control of the future
economic benefits comprising the asset. Any control is limited – while others can be excluded from
participating in the benefits, it is impossible to transfer any future economic benefit to another
entity. The only exception is the ability to transfer tax losses within wholly owned groups. While
severability is not critical, its absence may indicate an absence of control. Usually when an asset is
not capable of being severed on its own, it will be capable of being severed as part of an operation
or sub-entity (for example, goodwill); however this is not the case for DTAs. It is also questionable
whether the recognition criteria are satisfied – since there is a condition precedent to the ability to
obtain the future economic benefits (the existence of future assessable amounts). In the terminology
of AASB 137 we have a contingent asset, not a recognised asset.

Chapter 10: Income tax 6
10.10 Is the recognition of deferred tax liabilities under AASB 112 consistent
with the definition and recognition criteria of liabilities in the
Framework? Give reasons to support your answer.
We do not believe that the recognition of DTLs is consistent with the definition and recognition
criteria for liabilities under the Framework. An essential element of the liability definition is that a
liability be a present obligation to make a future sacrifice of economic benefits. DTLs are not
present obligations to a third party – an obligation will arise only when (a) future assessable income
is earned, and (b) its amount exceeds the then available allowable deductions. Therefore, to use the
terminology in AASB 137 we have a contingent liability, not a liability warranting recognition.
Under AASB 112, recognition of DTLs does not depend on the recognition tests of the Framework
– if the definition of DTL is satisfied, they must be recognised regardless of the probability, except
if there is an express prohibition (for example, the one in respect of non-deductible goodwill).
10.11 Explain how a tax loss may be carried forward to a future year.
The carrying forward of tax losses is discussed on pages 260–261. In substance, under Australian
income tax rules, if an entity has a negative taxable income (a tax loss) it can claim a deduction in
subsequent reporting periods equal to the tax losses. Thus a carry forward tax loss can be recouped
(an allowable deduction is obtained) over one or more subsequent reporting periods.
10.12 ‘Tax losses cannot possibly give rise to an asset. The recognition of
deferred tax assets in such circumstances is misleading.’ Do you
agree with this statement? Provide arguments to support your
position. In answering this question refer to any relevant provisions of
the conceptual framework.
For carry forward tax losses, does the entity have control of the future economic benefits
comprising the DTA? If there is no control, the asset definition is not satisfied. Any control of the
DTA is limited – while others can be excluded from participating in the benefits, it is impossible to
transfer any future economic benefit to another entity – it is not severable. While severability is not
critical to the presence of control, its absence may indicate an absence of control. It may be that for
some but not all DTAs, the requisite control can be established (this is discussed in the next
paragraph). Usually when an asset is not capable of being severed on its own, it will be capable of
being severed as part of an operation or sub-entity (for example, goodwill); however this is not the
case for DTAs. In limited circumstances a DTA is severable through the ability to transfer tax
losses within wholly owned groups.
However, unlike other DTAs, for carry-forward tax losses we have a legal right to claim a
deduction in future periods – for most other DTAs there is no current legal right. For example, for
doubtful debts and warranty claims, a legal right to make a deduction only arises when we have
established that a particular debt cannot be recovered or a warranty claim is satisfied. Is this
sufficient to make a difference? In these cases both the existence of the right and its amount are
contingent on future events. For DTAs arising from tax losses, the existence is not contingent,
however, its amount is contingent on future events (the earning of sufficient future taxable income
against which to offset the loss). In these circumstances it is questionable whether the recognition
criteria are satisfied – since there is a condition precedent to the ability to obtain the future
economic benefits (the existence of sufficient future assessable amounts). In the terminology of
AASB 137 we have a contingent asset rather than a recognised asset.

Chapter 10: Income tax 7
Problems arise with both the definitions of liability and asset under the Framework and the
recognition criteria established in the Framework. (These aspect and other issues are discussed on
pages 262–264).
The main problem is in establishing that DTAs satisfy the recognition criteria for assets and DTLs
satisfy the recognition criteria for liabilities. Under AASB 112 recognition of DTLs does not
depend on the recognition tests in the Framework – if the definition of DTL is satisfied, they must
be recognised. For DTAs, the recognition criteria in AASB 112 are broadly consistent with those in
the Framework. In the case of DTAs, is it correct to say that there is a future economic benefit that
is controlled by the entity? Any control is limited – while others can be excluded from participating
in the benefits, it is impossible to transfer any future economic benefit to another entity. The only
exception is the ability to transfer tax losses within wholly owned groups. In the case of DTLs, the
main issue is whether they impose a present obligation to make a future sacrifice of economic
benefits. In our view DTLs are prospective obligations that will only become present obligations if
certain conditions are met – for instance, the entity earning sufficient profits in relevant future
periods. Arguably, DTAs and DTLs are not assets and liabilities but represent, respectively,
contingent assets and contingent liabilities.1 (See AASB 137 and discussion in chapter 9.)

Taxable income (excluding impact of plant disposal) = $150 000 – $1 000 = $149 000.
Taxable income (including impact of plant disposal) = $149 000 - $3 000 = $146 000.
Income tax payable and current tax expense = 30% of $146 000 = $43 800.
Next, we determine the deferred tax for the two reporting periods. The first step is to determine the
carrying amount and tax base of the items at each relevant date.

The data gives the pre-tax accounting profit, therefore to find the taxable income we must adjust for
differences between the calculation of pre-tax accounting profit and taxable income; here due to
different treatment of the listed expenses. This can be done in several ways; one way (shown below)
is to add back the expense recognised for accounting and then deduct the allowable deductions.

Chapter 10: Income tax 25
For 20X1, taxable income will be –$50 000 + –$2 000 = –$52 000. A potential deferred tax asset
for the tax loss is therefore available of 30% x $52 000 = $15 600.
For 20X2, taxable income (excluding carry-forward tax loss deduction) will be $20 000, giving
current tax expense of $6 000 (30% of $20 000), but is potentially reducible to zero by the
availability of the carry-forward tax loss. This realisation of the current period tax benefit for carry-
forward tax loss means that the previously recognised DTA for the tax loss from 20X1 is reduced to
zero, and there is a corresponding deferred tax expense. If this is the case, the current tax expense
and the income tax payable will be zero.
For 20X3, taxable income will be $60 000 – 2 000, giving current tax expense and income tax
payable of $17 400 (30% of $58 000), but may be reduced by the remaining DTA for the tax loss of
$32 000 (that is, $52 000 – $20 000) to $26 000 in which case income tax payable and current tax
expense is $26 000 x 30% = $7 800.
To determine the deferred tax amounts, we must calculate the amounts of the carrying amount and
tax base at the relevant dates.

Introductory comments: The disclosure requirements of AASB 112 require separate aggregation of
four components of tax expense (revenue); current tax expense, current tax revenue, deferred tax
expense and deferred tax revenue. The best way to do so is through separate ledger accounts for the
four components. Similarly, the disclosures about the impact of tax losses mean that it is useful to
aggregate them in separate ledger accounts.

Remember that, unlike the original version of the balance sheet method of tax effect accounting in
AASB 1020, the existence of a deferred tax liability does not justify the recognition of a DTA (for
tax losses or otherwise) up to the amount of the balance of the DTL, since under AASB 112 a DTA
can only be recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be ‘future taxable profits
against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilised’ (AASB 112.24).
Year to 30 June 20X2:
Since the company was profitable for this reporting period, all other things being equal, it
would now be probable that the future deductible amounts for both the prior period tax losses
and the temporary difference will be recovered.

The change in the tax rate requires an increase in the balance of the DTA and DTL:
For DTA: $8 700 x (35–30)/30 = $1 450
For DTL: $4 200 x (35–30)/30 = $700
Under AASB 112 we only report the total tax expense, comprising deferred and current tax. Also, it
is only necessary to report an aggregate revenue or expense. However, it will facilitate disclosure
required by AASB 112 if we separate deferred tax revenue and deferred tax expense. Below we
present journal entries for both approaches.

Recognises increase in DTA balance over reporting period and
deferred tax revenue
The disclosure requirements of AASB 112 require separate aggregation of four components of tax
expense (revenue); current tax expense, current tax revenue, deferred tax expense and deferred tax
revenue. The best way to do so is through separate ledger accounts for the components. If at the end
of the reporting period the balances of those accounts are transferred to the tax expense (revenue)
account, the journal entry would be:
Note: Many entries nominally made on 30 June will in fact not be finalised until the financial report
is finalised.

Taxable income 256 000
Income tax payable (30%) and current tax expense 76 800
a Employee benefits expense for long service leave is the sum of the amount paid ($15 000) and the increase in the provision of
$30 000 (EOP carrying amount – SOP carrying amount = $175 000 – $145 000), thus the expense is $45 000.
b At the beginning of the reporting period the tax base for inventory was greater than its carrying amount. This can only be so if
some of the inventory was impaired and recognised at its net realisable value under AASB 102. The amount of that impairment
was $25 000 ($115 000 – $90 000). There is no impairment at reporting date, so, on disposal of the inventory during the current
period, the tax deduction for the period is $25 000 greater.
c Depreciation of buildings for accounting purposes is $40 000 (SOP carrying amount – EOP carrying amount = $720 000 –
$680 000), so tax deduction is $20 000 (half that for accounting purposes).
d Depreciation of plant for accounting purposes is $100 000 (SOP carrying amount – EOP carrying amount = $800 000 –
$700 000), so tax deduction is $200 000 (twice that for accounting purposes).
e The carrying amount of research and development decreased by $50 000 (SOP carrying amount – EOP carrying amount =
$100 000 – $50 000). It is assumed that no research and development expenditure was made during the reporting period.
f The provision for warranty increased by $25 000 (EOP carrying amount – SOP carrying amount = $135 000 – $110 000),
therefore the expense is $25 000 greater than the amount paid of $55 000, that is $80 000.
g Estimated uncollectible debts increased by $15 000 (EOP amount – SOP amount = $30 000 – $15 000 so the accounting
expense exceeded the tax deduction by $15 000. We do not know the amount of the tax deduction; however, we know the
amount of the difference.
h Interest expense = interest paid ($100 000) plus increase in debenture carrying amount of $17 000 (EOP carrying amount – SOP
carrying amount = $933 000 – $916 000), a total of $117 000.
i The carrying of revenue received in advance decreased by $50 000 (SOP carrying amount – EOP carrying amount = $50 000 –
$0), thus accounting revenue exceeded tax revenue by that amount.
j Interest receivable increased $1 000 (EOP carrying amount – SOP carrying amount = $6 000 – $5 000), therefore the accounting
revenue exceeded the assessable income by $1 000, although we do not know the amount recognised for financial reporting
purposes, however, the net amount is sufficient.
Note: The ‘+’ and ‘–’ signs for the dollar amounts appearing in column 3 indicate whether the difference results in
taxable income being greater than pre-tax accounting profit (+) or less than pre-tax accounting profit (–).

We do not know the amount of accounts receivable that became bad debts, and thus were derecognised,

expense is the amount included in accounting profit, hence the expense exceeds the allowable deduction by
$15 000.

The net deferred tax expense of $5 700 (excluding effect of tax rate change) is equal to the net increase in the DTL ($10 200) less the net increase in the
DTA ($4 500). It is possible to use the net amounts in the journal entries. However, it may be preferable to segregate the impact of the increments and
decrements since this will facilitate the disclosures required by AASB 112.

We do not know the amount of accounts receivable that became bad debts, and thus were derecognised,
during the period. However, as demonstrated above, if the amount is $X, then the amount of the expense for
the period must be $X + $15 000. The amount recognised as not recoverable is the tax deduction, and the
expense is the amount included in accounting profit, hence the expense exceeds the allowable deduction by
$15 000.

For the depreciation of the buildings and the plant, we have the SOP and EOP carrying
amount, and the fact that there were no additions or disposals, therefore we can work out the
expense and the allowable deduction for the period.

The net deferred tax expense of $6 270 (excluding effect of tax rate change) is equal to the net increase in the DTL ($11 220) less the net increase in
the DTA ($4 950). It is possible to use the net amounts in the journal entries. However, it may be preferable to segregate the impact of the increments
and decrements since this will facilitate the disclosures required by AASB 112.

The disclosure requirements of AASB 112 require separate aggregation of four components of tax
expense (revenue); current tax expense, current tax revenue, deferred tax expense and deferred tax
revenue. The best way to do so is through separate ledger accounts for the components. If at the end
of the reporting period the balances of those accounts are transferred to the tax expense (revenue)
account, the journal entry would be.

• The first step is to calculate the amounts for the allowable deductions and assessable income
from the data provided.
1 Sales revenue and wages and salaries expense
The amounts for sales revenue and wages and salaries1 would be the same for both tax and
accounting purposes.
2 Dividend revenue
The data does not indicate if the dividends are franked or if they are not if they are subject to
the rebate provisions. It has been assumed that either one or other of these conditions are
satisfied; therefore, the dividends are effectively not subject to income tax.

Items with a zero tax base: Most accrued revenues and expense have a zero tax base. Here the tax
base of accrued revenues (interest receivable and royalties receivable) are both zero, and for the
accrued expenses (interest payable, and those resulting from the creation of provisions – warranty
and long service leave) the tax base is also zero.
Other items: The tax base of accounts receivable is the amount before estimated uncollectible
amount. The carrying amount is the amount after estimated uncollectible amount.

FOOTNOTES:
[1] A letter from Lt.-Colonel R. McDouall.
[2] To commemorate the connection of the Buffs with Christ’s
College, a gold beaker has recently been presented to the 1st
Battalion by Sir A. E. Shipley, G.B.E., Master of Christ’s College.
[3] Julian Hasler recovered from his wounds, rejoined the
battalion in December and was given command of the 11th
Brigade in February, 1915. He was unhappily killed on the 26th
April, 1915. His fine fighting qualities ensured his success as a
soldier, whilst his great personal charm secured him many more
firm friends than most of us can claim; his death was deeply
mourned not only by the regiment, but throughout the army.
Born on the 16th October, 1868, he joined the Buffs in 1888.
He saw service in Chitral (1895), N.W. Frontier (Malakand, etc.,
1897–8), South African War (1899–1902; brevet major), N.
Nigeria (1903, Kano-Sokoto campaign), N. Nigeria (1906; in
command; brevet lieutenant-colonel). He was promoted brevet-
colonel 11th January, 1910.
[4] Robert George Kekewich, second son of Trehawke
Kekewich, of Peamore, Devon, was born on the 17th June, 1854,
and joined the Buffs on the 2nd December, 1874. He fought in the
Perak expedition of 1875–6, and in the Soudan, 1884–5, where
he gained a brevet majority. He was employed as D.A.A.G. in the
Soudan campaign of 1888, and afterwards as military secretary to
the C.-in-C., Madras, and was engaged in the operations in
Burma 1892–3. He was promoted into the Loyal Regiment (North
Lancashire) and commanded the 1st Battalion of that regiment in
the South African War. He commanded the garrison during the
siege of Kimberley; received the rank of brevet-colonel and the
C.B., and in August, 1902, was specially promoted major-general.
He was appointed colonel of the Buffs on the 5th October, 1909.
[5] Arthur Henry Fitzroy Paget, eldest son of General Lord
Alfred Paget, was born on the 1st March, 1851, and entered the
Scots Guards in 1869. He served in the Ashanti War, 1873; in the
Soudan, 1885; in Burma, 1887–8, and again in the Soudan in
1888–9. He commanded the 1st Scots Guards in the South
African War and later the 20th Brigade, being specially promoted
major-general. He commanded the 1st Division from 1902–6,
during which time he received the C.B. and the K.C.V.O. and was
promoted lieutenant-general. He was made a K.C.B. in 1907, and
the following year was appointed G.O.C. Eastern Command. He
was an Aide-de-camp General to His Majesty from 1910–14. In
1912 he was appointed General Officer Commanding-in-Chief the
Forces in Ireland and advanced to the dignity of Privy Councillor,
and the following year was promoted general and received the
G.C.B. In January, 1915, General Paget was sent on a Special
Mission to Russia and the Balkan States and was received by the
Tzar of Russia and the Kings of Roumania, Bulgaria, Servia and
Greece. The following year he was sent by His Majesty King
George V to convey the Field-Marshal’s baton to the Tzar of
Russia. In 1917 he visited Verdun, representing His Majesty, to
confer on that town the Military Cross.
[6] Captain Blackall, an old Militia and Special Reserve officer,
was killed on the 24th March, 1918, whilst attached to the 4th
South Staffordshire Regiment.
[7] “Other chambers in College were occupied by officers of the
Buffs, and these officers had their ante-room in VIIth Chamber
and their mess in College Hall. Hence the small oak shield,
carved with the Buffs’ Dragon, which may now be seen on the
north side of the Hall. This was a parting gift from Captain F. W.
Tomlinson.”—The Wykehamist, No. 538, February, 1915.
[8] This half-company, under Major R. E. Power, had not
rejoined the battalion the previous night, having been detailed to
occupy an unfinished trench in the front line. Lieut. J. W. Butts
Archer was killed whilst superintending a working party.
[9] Augustus David Geddes was born on the 6th June, 1866,
and joined the Buffs on the 5th February, 1887; he was adjutant of
the 2nd Battalion from 1898 until 1900, when he was severely
wounded, in the South African War. After being some years on
the staff, he was promoted to command the 2nd Battalion in 1911.
[10] No. L/8907 Pte. David Alexander served in France
continuously throughout the war until he was killed a few weeks
before the Armistice, having won the Military Medal and attained
the rank of company sergeant major.
[11] In those days many firms promised extravagant terms to
those of their employees who enlisted, but in many cases such
undertakings were not fulfilled. Messrs. Cory and Son, let it be
said to their undying credit, played the game throughout by their
men and their dependents, and were moreover the most liberal
supporters of any fund that was for the benefit of the battalion.
[12] The Dean, the Very Rev. Henry Wace, D.D., in arranging
the service wrote as follows: “I assure you we regard it as one of
our first and most honourable duties in the Cathedral to welcome
the County Regiment.”
[13] “A4 Boys” were lads of eighteen passed fit, but retained at
home for a year on account of age.
[14] Claude Arthur Worthington, son of Captain Arthur
Worthington of the Buffs, who carried the Colour into Sevastopol,
was born on the 25th May, 1874, and joined the Buffs in 1898. He
served with the 2nd Battalion in the South African War, acting as
adjutant from February to May, 1900. He was later adjutant of the
2nd Battalion from 1905–8.
[15] This operation was known as “mopping up” and really
meant finishing and completing work that the leading troops had
to leave undone, such as the capture of men remaining in the
dug-outs and so on.
[16] The following is an extract from a letter to Sir Courtenay
Vyvyan (late the Buffs) from the A.A.G. 6th Division:—
“Your old battalion is going very strong. It is
commanded by Green, and Gould is second in
command. Otherwise I don’t suppose you know anyone.
They did splendidly on the Somme and never lost their
discipline for a moment. I saw them on parade after the
fight of the 13th/18th September, when they only had
314 men left, and they might have been parading for
the King’s birthday. It really was a magnificent sight.”
[17] This Union Jack now hangs in Canterbury Cathedral, it
having been later on presented to the battalion as a trophy; later
on still it was handed over for safe custody to the Dean and
Chapter and accepted by them at a grand ceremony held in the
Cathedral at which were present many of the Buffs, particularly of
the 5th Battalion, amongst whom was Captain G. K. Harrison, the
man who had hoisted it on the 11th March.
[18] Wadi is the Arabic for watercourse or river-bed; as a rule
innocent of water, but occasionally, during the rains, rushing
torrents.
[19] Beit is the Arabic for house, and so comes to mean village.
[20] These cadet schools were started after the war had been
some time in progress, and when they were established
commissions were no longer given except to graduates.
[21] This officer belongs to the Royal Fusiliers and went to
France as adjutant to the 8th Battalion of that regiment, being
promoted to command the 6th Buffs in March, 1916. He twice
won the D.S.O.
[22] Regimental sergeant-major.
[23] For an example of the “leap-frog” method, see pp, 385–7.
[24] No. 4181 Sgt. Moon had been recommended for the V.C.
the previous August for gallant conduct at Zillebeke, where he
received his death wounds.
[25] See page 269.
[26] This officer was killed in action at Sanctuary Wood on the
3rd June, 1918, as major-general commanding the 3rd Canadian
Division.
[27] B.E.F., 42; C.E.F., 215.
[28] These were actually officers of Q.O.R. before leaving
Canada, and are separate to above.
[29] This was the first practical illustration of the German
method of infiltration which had lately been introduced and which
now influences our own tactics. Blobs of Germans with light guns
could be seen advancing wherever they could make progress—
wherever they saw a “soft spot.”
[30] One of these, Pte. A. C. Coleman, won the D.C.M., the
M.M. and the M.S.M.
[31] These two young men served right through the war from
the landing of the battalion till the armistice, and always with
distinction. They both got bars to their M.M.’s for this day’s work.
[32] Captain and Brevet Lt.-Colonel A. L. Ransome, D.S.O.,
M.C., went to France at the beginning of the war as adjutant of
the 1st Battalion of the Dorsetshire Regiment, and after serving
as Brigade Major of the 15th Infantry Brigade was appointed
Commanding Officer of the 7th Buffs in February, 1916, with
which he served without a break till September, 1918.
[33] Z + a number means that number of minutes after zero
hour.
[34] This was written before the 5th Battalion ceased to exist as
such.
[35] The appendices have been compiled by Major F. W.
Tomlinson, Hon. Sec. of the Buffs’ History Committee, with the
assistance of Miss Olive Tomlinson and Major E. F. Gould, to
whom he offers his grateful thanks, as well as to the War Office
and Officer in Charge of Records. The names of the dead have
been taken from the official lists, but corrected and amplified as
far as possible; they correspond with the names in the Roll of
Honour which is to be placed in Canterbury Cathedral, in the
Warriors’ Chapel.
[36] Medal of St. George, 3rd Class.
[37] Both these officers won clasps to their D.S.O. whilst
commanding battalions of the Buffs.
