12. Frank is a self−employed CPA whose 2019 net earnings from his trade or business (before the H.R. 10 plan contribution but after the deduction for one−half of self−employmenttaxes) is $240,000. What is the maximum contribution that Frank can make on his behalf to his H.R. 10 (Keogh) plan in 2019?
48,000
56,000
19,000
60,000
Net earnings after employment taxes = 2,40,000
Lets assume total taxable income is X out of which 1/2 have been paid as tax. 15.3 % is the self employment tax in US.
X- ((15. 3% * X)*1/2) = 2,40,000
X= 256684
20% of this 256684 is the minimum contribution that needs to be made. So, $56000 is the maximum that can be made.
Answer is 56000
