Cash flows from taxes on income are disclosed separately and classified as operating activities unless they can be tied specifically to an investing or financing transaction. When tax cash flows are spread across several activities, the total taxes paid are disclosed. The amount paid is calculated from current tax and balances, never from the total expense, which includes deferred tax.
