Answer:
a. Failure to pay penalty = 400
b. Failure to file penalty = $4,000
Explanation:
The monthly rate for failure to pay penalty is 0.5% while the failure to file penalty.
Since it is assumed that there are 30 days in a month, the 35 days after the due date of the return without obtaining an extension from the IRS is will be counted as 2 months regardless of the fact that the second month is just 5 files when she filed.
Therefore, we have:
a. Failure to pay penalty = $40,000 * 0.5% * 2 = 400
b. Failure to file penalty = ($40,000 * 5% * 2) = $4,000
c. Total penalties = (Failure to file penalty - failure to pay penalty for the same period) + Failure to pay penalty = ($4,000 - $400) + $400 = $4,000.
Therefore, the total penalty Isabella will pay is $4,000.

Answer:
$450,000
Explanation:
Theodore Enterprises had the following pretax income (loss) over its first three years of operations:
2016 $ 500,000
2017 (900,000 )
2018 1,500,000
For each year there were no deferred income taxes and the tax rate was 30%. In its 2017 tax return, Theodore elected a net operating loss carryback. No valuation account was deemed necessary for the deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2017.
Therefore Theodore's income tax expense for 2018 is 30% x 1,500,000 = $450,000
Loss carry back is when a business elects to net off losses against a previous year's return as opposed to loss carry forward which is the future years' return.
