Response to the following problem:
Roth Inc. has a deferred tax liability of $68,000 at the beginning of 2015. At the end of 2015, it reports accounts receivable on the books at $90,000 and the tax basis at zero (its only temporary difference).
If the enacted tax rate is 34% for all periods, and income taxes payable for the period is $230,000, determine the amount of total income tax expense to report for 2015.
