Answer:

Income tax expense 567,000 debit

income tax liability 151,200 credit

income tax payable 415,800 credit

Explanation:

Income before taxes: 2,700,000

unfavorale temporary difference 240,000

favorable temporary difference 960,000

taxable income 1,980,000

income tax payable : 1,980,000 x 21% = 415,800

income tax expense: 2,700,000 x 21% = 567,000

960,000 - 240,000 = 720,000 net

as we are paying fewer taxes now, we are going to pay more in the future.

Therefore, we have a tax liaiblity:

720,000 x 21 = 151,200
