What would Kent's income tax expense be in the year 2021?

$41,250

Explanation:

income tax payable 2021 = (pretax accounting income 2021 - permanent differences 2021 - temporary differences 2021) x tax rate 2021

income tax payable 2021 = ($180,000 - $15,000 - $12,000) x 25%

income tax payable 2021 = $153,000 x 25%

income tax payable 2021 = $38,250

income tax expense 2021 = income tax payable + (differences in cumulative future taxable amounts x tax rate) = $38,250 + [($25,000 - $13,000) x 25%] = $38,250 + ($12,000 x 25%) = $38,250 + $3,000 = $41,250
