    Current deferred tax liability

    Explanation:

    The subscriptions received in advance would increase revenue next year as well as the net income, hence more taxes would be paid next year due to the subscriptions by the time it is recognized as revenue by debiting the subscriptions received in advance account and crediting the revenue.

    Since it would increase the amount of taxes, it is a deferred tax liability.

    In addition, the necessary taxes is payable in a year's time, hence it is a current deferred tax liability.
