I'm trying to model out a few 'real life' companies, and have noticed that a lot of them have both deferred tax assets and liabilities on both sides of the balance sheet. How do I go about modelling this out? I was always taught to keep track of NOLs off-BS and you have a DTA/DTL that comes off that. But that doesn't make sense in this case as how can you have the NOLs to create a DTA when you also have a DTL?
