There should be $3668 as balance in the Kent's deferred tax liability account .

Explanation:

A deferred income tax liability is that type of liability which a firm records in its balance sheet because the income which firm has recorded in its book is more than the actual tax which a firm has to pay.

For calculating the deferred tax liability here we will multiply the given tax rate to the cumulative taxable amounts which all are from depreciation temporary differences and take their difference as deferred tax liability.

DEFERRED TAX LIABILITY =

$26,700 X 28%  - $13,600 x 28%

= $7476 - $3808

= $ 3668
