Answer:

Explanation:

The journal entry is shown below:

Income tax expense A/c Dr $40,000

Deferred tax liability A/c Dr ($210,000 - $155,000) × 40% = $22,000

        To Income tax payable ($155,000 × 0.40) = $62,000

(Being income tax expense is recorded for the year)

The income tax expense amount is a balance figure which is computed by

= Income tax payable - Deferred tax liability

= $62,000 - $22,000

= $40,000
