Taxes are calculated according to tax accounting rules, not IFRS, though?
I know of at least two Western European countries where you don't have to do that. Don't worry, we pay enough taxes either way ;)

Yeah, seems I was wrong about that. Apparently most IFRS countries allow expensing R&D for tax purposes, regardless of accounting. Many even have an R&D superdeduction nowadays.
Sorry for the noise :(
I was confused and has to double check. In Australia you can deduct them https://www.ato.gov.au/businesses-and-organisations/income-d...
Came here to ask about the Aussie RDTI. So, if I spend $10M on R&D and make $5M, what's the difference between US and Aussie net?
Some countries have uniform accounting where the tax accounting rules closely follow IFRS.
