Juan was considering purchasing an interest in a tax-exempt bond fund for $100,000 when he discovered that the interest must be
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

The double-exempt bond is the preferred investment because it has a higher after-tax return Tax benefit .

Explanation:

Calculatation of the after-tax return on both bonds

1)The double-exempt bond does not pay state or federal income taxes.

After-tax return =

Before-tax return = 4.9%

2)The tax-exempt bond is the state income taxes, but not federal in which the states can decide whether to tax their bonds or not.

Interest Income (100,000 * 5%) 5,000

Less: State taxes at 10% (5,000* 10%) (500)

Tax benefit from deduction of state taxes on federal return (500 * 35%) 175

After-tax Income 4,675

After-tax return = 4,675/100,000 = 4.675%

Therefore the double-exempt bond is the preferred investment because it has a higher after-tax return Tax benefit .

Hence the state income tax will be deductible on Juan’s federal tax return and Juan’s federal taxable income will be lower or lesser by $500 which will produces tax savings at his federal marginal tax rate of $500 * 35% = $175.
