he Talley Corporation had a taxable income of $345,000 from operations after all operating costs but before (1) interest charges
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

(a) The firm's Income tax liability is $59,771.25.

(b) The firm's after-tax income is $233,478.75.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows

The Talley Corporation had a taxable income of $345,000 from operations after all operating costs but before (1) interest charges of $69,000, (2) dividends received of $17,250, (3) dividends paid of $20,700, and (4) income taxes. Its federal tax rate was 21% (ignore any possible state corporate taxes). Recall 50% of dividends received are tax exempt. What are the firm's income tax liability and its after-tax income?

The explanation to the anwer is now given as follows:

Adjusted taxable income = Income after operation - Interest charges + Taxable dividend received ................. (1)

Where;

Income after operation = $345,0000

Interest charges = $69,000

Taxable dividend received = 50% * $17,250 = $8,625

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Adjusted taxable income = $345,000 - $69,000 + $8,625 = $284,625

(a) Income tax liability = Adjusted taxable income *  Tax rate = $284,625 * 21% = $59,771.25

(b) After-tax income = (Adjusted taxable income - Income tax liability) + (50% of dividend received) = ($284,625 - $59,771.25) +  (50% * $17,250) = $224,853.75 + $8,625 = $233,478.75

Randall's has 28,000 shares of stock outstanding with a par value of $1 per share. The market value is $13 per share. The balanc
a_sh-v [17]

Answer: $38,200

Explanation:

There are 28,000 Outstanding shares with a $13 market value.

That means that in total they are valued at,

= 28,000 * 13

= $364,000

The firm announced a 15% dividend so we take 15% of the total amount.

= 15% * 364,000

= $54,600

$54,600 is the total amount they will pay as dividends.

Dividends are taken from the Retained Earnings meaning that the balance in Retained earnings is therefore,

= $92,800 - $54,600

= $38,200

$38,200 will be the balance in the retained earnings account after the dividend.
