SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

$173,820

Explanation:

pretax financial income $616,000

- interest income on municipal bonds ($78,400)

+ depreciation ($67,200 - $50,400) = $16,800

+ fine for dumping hazardous materials $25,000

taxable income = $579,400

income taxes payable = $579,400 x 30% = $173,820

Fines are not tax deductible, and since depreciation for tax purposes is lower than accounting depreciation, you must add them. But since municipal bonds are not taxable, they must be subtracted.
