Answer:

Robinson's deferred income tax expense or benefit for the current year would be $6,700

Explanation:

The computation of the deferred income tax expense or benefit for the current year is shown below:

= Deferred tax expense - adjustment of tax based on the tax rate

where,

Deferred tax expense = (Favorable temporary differences - unfavorable temporary differences) × corporate tax rate

= ($50,000 - $20,000) × 21%

= $6,300

And, the adjustment of tax equals to

= Net taxable temporary difference × (Tax rate - corporate tax rate)

= $100,000 × (34% - 21%)

= $13,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $6,300 - $13,000

= $6,700
