Answer:

Debit deferred tax asset for $12,000

Debit income tax expense for $18,000

Credit income tax payable for $30,000

Explanation:

The journal entries will look as follows:

Date Account Name and Description Debit ($) Credit ($)

20X1 Deferred tax asset (w.1) 12,000

Income tax expense (w.3) 18,000

Income tax payable (w.2) 30,000

(To record income taxes at the end of 20X1.)

Workings:

w.1: Deferred tax asset = Deferred portion of the rent collected in 20X1 * Tax rate = $40,000 * 12% = $12,000

w.2: Income tax payable = Taxable income * Tax rate = $100,000 * 30% = $30,000

w.3: Income tax expense = Income tax payable - Deferred tax asset = $30,000 - $12,000 = $18,000
