Question -

Oxford Corporation began operations in 2012 and reported pretax financial income of $225,000 for the year. Oxford's tax depreciation exceeded its book depreciation by $40,000. Oxford tax rate for 2012 and years thereafter is 30%. In its December 31, 2012, balance sheet, what amount of deferred tax liability should be reported?

Using the information from BE19-2, assume this is the only difference between Oxford's pretax financial income and taxable income. Prepare the journal entry to record the income tax expense, deferred income taxes, and income taxes payable, and show how the deferred tax liability will be classified on the December 31, 2012, balance sheet.
