Accrual of tax liability for an interim reporting period
Assume that our company reports pretax income for the quarter of $900,000. This is typically a low profit quarter for us, and we estimate that taxable income will be $7,200,000 for the year.

statutory federal and state combined rate of 22%.

ANSWER
a. Compute the estimated effective tax rate for the year assuming a statutory federal and state combined rate of 22%. Round to nearest whole percent.
Particulars | Amount |
Estimated taxable income for the year | $7,200,000 |
Federal tax rate | 22% |
Estimated tax expense for the year |
= $7,200,000 * 22% = $7,200,000 * 0.22 = $1,584,000 |
Expected tax credits | $324,000 |
Net tax payable |
= $1,584,000- $324,000 = $1,260,000 |
Effective tax rate |
= $1,260,000/ $7,200,000 = 0.175 = 17.5% |
b. Prepare the required journal entry to accrue tax liability for the interim period.
General Journal | Debit | Credit |
Income tax expense |
= $900,000* 17.5% = $157,500 |
|
Income tax payable | $157,500 |
