Income Tax Accounting Policy

Johnson & Johnson intends to continue to reinvest its undistributed international earnings to expand its international operations; therefore, no U.S. tax expense has been recorded with respect to the undistributed portion not intended for repatriation. At January 2, 2011 and January 3, 2010, the cumulative amount of undistributed international earnings was approximately $37.0 billion and $32.2 billion, respectively.

Deferred income taxes are recognized for tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory tax rates, applicable to future years, to differences between the financial reporting and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities.
