Answer 1

Step-1, Calculation of Taxable Income

Taxable income = Operating Income + Interest Received – Interest Paid + Taxable Dividend Received

= $250,000 + 10,000 – 45,000 + [$20,000 x (1 – 0.30)]

= $250,000 + 10,000 – 45,000 + 6,000

= $210,000

Step-2, Calculation of Corporation’s Tax Liability

Tax for the first $50,000 = $7,500 ($50,000 x 15%)

Tax for the next $25,000 = $6,250 ($25,000 x 25%)

Tax for the next $25,000 = $8,500 ($25,000 x 34%)

Tax for the Last $121,000 = $47,190 ($121,000 x 39%)

Therefore, Corporation’s Tax Liability

= $7,500 + 6,250 + 8,500 + 47,190

= $69,440

“Corporation’s Tax Liability = $69,440”
