What is taxable income for the first year and how much should the company expect to pay in taxes?

Answer 1

Answer:

Total taxable income  = $245,000

Total Tax = $84430

Explanation:

given data

11% of first =  $40,000 profits

22% of next = $26,000

39% of next = $29,000

42% of  over = $95,000

gross revenues = $380,000

total costs = $120,000

allowable tax deductions = $15,000

to find out

taxable income for the first year and how much should the company expect to pay in taxes

solution

we get here first Total taxable income that is

Total taxable income = Total revenue - (Total cost + Tax deductions ) .......................1

put here value we get

Total taxable income = $380,000 - ($120,000 + $15,000 )

Total taxable income  = $380000 - $135000 = $245,000

so total tax will be

Total Tax =  [0.11 × 40000 + 0.22 × 26000 + 0.39 × 29000 + 0.42  × (245000 95000)  ]

Total Tax = 4400 + 5720 +11310 +63000

Total Tax = $84430
