Answer:

B. $19,687 mil

Explanation:

The statutory tax rate is the percentage imposed by law; the effective tax rate is the percentage of income actually paid by an individual or a company after taking into account tax breaks (including loopholes, deductions, exemptions, credits, and preferential rates).

Now, in our question, statutory tax rate is 35%, but effective tax rate is 15%. This implies, with the help of tax breaks or loopholes, company managed to pay only 15% of its income as taxes.

This 15% of income = $2,953 mil

Hence, pretax income = 2,953/15% = $19,686.67 mil = $19,687 mil

present value = \frac{34000}{1.08^{20}}

present value = \frac{34000}{4.660}

present value = $7296.14
