Explanation:
a. Prepare the journal entry to record income tax expense, deferred income taxes, and income taxes payable for 2020.
Debit Income Tax Expense $40400
Debit Defered Tax Asset $7070
Credit Income Tax Payable $19190
Credit Defered tax liability $28280
(To record income tax expense and defered tax/liability).
Note that:
Income Tax Expense was gotten as:
= $202,000 × 20%
= $202000 × 0.2
= $40,4000
Income Tax Payable was gotten as:
= $95,950 × 20%
= $95950 × 0.2
= $19,190
2. Prepare the income tax expense section of the income statement for 2020.
Income statement for year ended 31 December 2020
Income before tax = $202000
Less: Income Tax expense - Current = $19190
Less: Income Tax expense - Defered = $21210
Net income = $161600
