Answer:
d) $677,532.
Explanation:
1.
Written down value of the equipment after 4 years = Cost x ( 100% - 1st year MACRS - Second-year MACRS - Third-year MACRS - Fourth-year MACRS ) = $3,500,000 x ( 100% - 20% - 32% - 19.20% - 11.52% ) = $604,800
2.
Now calculate the gain on the sale of equipment
Gain on the sale of equipment = Sale Price - Written down Value after 4 years = $715,000 - $604,800 = $110,200
3.
Tax owed = Gain on the sale x Tax rate = $110,200 x 34% = $37,468
After-tax salvage value = Sales price - Tax = $715,000 - $37,468 = $677,532
Stick to the regular risk and not the new one
Answer:
From the information provided
Federal rate tax of earnings = 30000 × 0.6%
= 30000 × 0.006
= 180
State rate tax of earnings = 30000 × 5.4%
= 30000 × 0.054
= 1620
Medicare taxes = 2625
Social security taxes = 10500
Total payroll tax expenses = Medicare taxes + social security taxes + state rate tax on earnings + federal rate tax on earnings
= 10500 + 2625 + 180 +1620
= $ 14925
