Exclusions and tax-deductible expenses


Problem:

The Analtoly Corporation is an electronics dealer. Sales for the last year $ 4.5 million , and costs of goods sold and operating expenses totaled $ 3.2 million. Analtoly also paid $ 150,000 in interest expense, and depreciation expense totaled $ 50,000. In addition, the company sold securities for $ 120,000 that it purchased 4 years earlier at a price of $ 40,000. Compute the taxable income and tax liability for Analtoly.

Taxable income is basically determined as income less allowable exclusions and tax-deductible expenses

Seventy percent of any dividends received from another corporation are tax exempt

Dividends paid by the corporation to its stockholders are not tax deductible

Corporate rate structure:

25%    $50,001   - $75,000
34%    $75,001   - 100,000

There is an added tax of 5% for income between $100,000 and $335,000.

There is also an additional added tax of 3% on income between $15 million and $18 1/3 million.
