Prepare the journal entries to record the deferred tax


Lafayette, Inc. completed its first year of operations with a pretax loss of $800,000. The tax return showed a net operating loss of $750,000, which the company will carry forward. The $50,000 book-tax difference results from a disallowed deduction for meals and entertainment. Management has determined that they should record a valuation allowance equal to the net deferred tax asset. Assuming a tax rate of 34%, prepare the journal entries to record the deferred tax provision and the valuation allowance.
