Is rent collected in advance a temporary account?

The account that you would put this rent collection in is generaly called "Un-Earned Rent Revenue". At the end of the period, you have to close these accounts. So yes, it is a temporary account.A quick explanation why:- There are two main types of accounting:1. Accrual - expenses and revnues are recongisd when they ACTUALLY happen.2. Cash based - expenses and revenues are recognised when they are PAID.- Because of this there are "timing differences" which may occur, which can be classified as:1. Acrued revenue - rev. recognised BEFORE cash is received.2. Accrued expense - exp. recognised BEEFORE cash is paid.3. Deferred revenue - rev. recognised AFTER cash is received.4. Deferred expense - exp. recognised AFTER cash is paid.-In the case of our rent collected in advance, this is where you have collected the money for a service before you have given it. This unnearned revenue is a DEFERRED REVENUE which is a LIABILITY account.If you want more info - have a look at accountinginfo.com/study/accrual-101.htm

Why is the tax expense reported on the income statement comprised of current and deferred tax?

This is in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". The theory is that even if you don't owe tax today on a given temporary difference, you will one day owe (or get the tax benefit) of said temporary difference. Remember: current tax expense= your tax bill this year deferred tax expense/ benefit=your future tax expense or benefit on the book/tax temporary items
