North Dakota Corporation began operations in January 2017 and purchased a machine for $15,000. North Dakota uses straight-line depreciation over a four-year period for financial reporting purposes. For tax purposes, the deduction is 50% of cost in 2017, 30% in 2018, and 20% in 2019. Pretax accounting income for 2017 was $145,000, which includes interest revenue of $17,500 from municipal bonds. The enacted tax rate is 30% for all years. There are no other differences between accounting and taxable income.

Required:

Prepare a journal entry to record income taxes for the year 2017. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
