As the new accountant for Pina Coladas Pet Express Inc., a line of pet boutiques, you are developing the financial statement disclosures for the 2020 financial statement note on income taxes. The company uses ASPE, and has selected the taxes payable method. The statutory tax rate is currently 30%. During 2020, net income before tax was $190,000. CCA exceeded depreciation expense by $33,000. The only permanent difference was the non-deductible portion of meals and entertainment costs, which was 50% of $20,600.

Determine the income tax expense to be recorded using the taxes payable method and record the necessary journal entry. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when the amount is entered. Do not indent manually. If no entry is required, select "No Entry" for the account titles and enter 0 for the amounts.)
