Income Taxes Payable 4, To record income taxes accrued in August. (9) 31No adjusting entry required. b. (1) Eight months (bills received January through August). Utilities bills are recorded as monthly bills are received. As of August 31, eight monthly bills should have been received. (2) Seven months (January through July). Depreciation expense is recorded only in month- end adjusting entries. Thus, depreciation for August is not included in the August unadjusted trial balance. (3) Twenty months ($14,000/$700 per month). c. Corporations must pay income taxes in several installments throughout the year. The balance in the Income Taxes Expense account represents the total amount of income taxes expense recognized since the beginning of the year. But Income Taxes Payable represents only the portion of this expense that has not yet been paid. In the example at hand, the $4,740 in income taxes payable probably represents only the income taxes expense accrued in July, as Campus Theater should have paid taxes accrued in the first two quarters by June 15.
