Answer:

Comer's tax liability for 2018 = $33300

Explanation:

Before determining Comer's tax liability for 2018, we need to understand what gross income is and what forms part of gross income. Gross income is total amount of income from various sources minus/plus and additions and deductions. Income from salary is earned in the ordinary course of work/business which is definitely part of gross income. Capital gain is refers to gain/profit/income from sale of capital assets such as property, shares, stocks, piece of land. Any gains and losses form part of gross income and capital losses are reported as deductions meant to reduce investors tax liability just as capital gains should be taxed.

Lets first calculate gross income and then apply tax rate to determine tax liability.

Gross income = salary + Short-term & long-term capital gains - short-term & long-term capital losses

GI = $64000 + $31000 + $9000+$15000 -$2000 -$6000

GI = $111000

Assuming the tax rate is 30%, the tax liability for the year is as follows:

Tax liability = $111000×30%

Tax liability = $33300

Olegator [25]

Answer:

The after-tax cost is $23,940

Explanation:

For computing the after-tax cost, first we have to compute the present value which is shown below:

Present value = Bill payment × marginal tax rate

                       = $38,000 × 37%

                       = $14,060

So, after tax value would equal to

= Bill payment or Pre tax value - Present value

= $38,000 - $14,060

= $23,940
