2. Amount of the bonus $12,898
Assuming Bonus = B, Income tax = T |
B = 6% x ($320000 - B - T) |
T = 30% x ($320000 - B) |
Substituting for T in the bonus formula: |
B = 6% x [$320000 - B - 30% x ($320000 - B)] |
B = 6% x ($320000 - B - $96000 - 0.3B) |
B = 6% x ($224000 - 0.7B) |
B = $13440 - 0.042B |
1.042B = $13440 |
B = $13440/1.042 |
B = $12898 |
