Typical Corp. reported a deferred tax liability of $6,000,000 for the year ended December 31, 2017, when the tax rate was 40%. The deferred tax liability was related to a temporary difference of $15,000,000 caused by an installment sale in 2017. The temporary difference is expected to reverse in 2019 when the income deferred from taxation will become taxable. There are no other temporary differences. Assume a new tax law passed in 2018 and the tax rate, which will remain at 40% through December 31, 2018, will become 48% for tax years beginning after December 31, 2018. Pretax accounting income and taxable income for the year 2018 is $30,000,000.

Required:
Prepare a compound journal entry to record Typical's income tax expense for the year 2018. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)

Answer:

Income tax expense (Balancing figure) $13,200,000  

          To Deferred tax liability (8% × $15,000,000)  $1,200,000

          To Income tax payable ($30,000,000 × 40%)  $12,000,000

(Being the income tax expense is recorded)

Explanation:

The compound journal entry is shown below:

Income tax expense (Balancing figure) $13,200,000  

          To Deferred tax liability (8% × $15,000,000)  $1,200,000

          To Income tax payable ($30,000,000 × 40%)  $12,000,000

(Being the income tax expense is recorded)

For recording this, we debited the income tax expense as it increased the expenses and at the same time it also increased the liabilities i.e deferred tax liability and income tax payable so it would be credited
