The certificate pays interest only at the end of the three-year term but interest is compounded annually at the rate of 10%. Currently, the corporation’s marginal tax rate is 28%. However, in 2020, the marginal tax rate will decrease to 25%.

Required:

1) Calculate interest income and tax liability for the individual for years 2019-2022

2) Calculate interest income and tax liability for the corporation for years 2019-2022

Expert Solution

Interest income for corporation must be reported as accrual basis. In case of Individual can show interest income as receipts basis.

Part 1)

So in this case individual can pay liable for tax on entire income in 2022

Year Investment Accrual Interest @ 10% Investment after interest
2019 - 20            20,000                 2,000                       22,000
2020 - 21            22,000                 2,200                       24,200
2021 - 22            24,200                 2,420                       26,620
                6,620

So tax will be 25% on 6,620 is = $1,655

Part 2)

In case of corporation tax will be payable on accural basis on Intererest income:

Year Investment Accrual Interest @ 10% Investment after interest April to Dec Interest Jan to Mar Interest
2019 - 20            20,000                 2,000                       22,000             2,019      1,500           2,020          500
2020 - 21            22,000                 2,200                       24,200             2,020      1,650           2,021          550
2021 - 22            24,200                 2,420                       26,620             2,021      1,815           2,022          605
                6,620

So Year wise Income and tax is as under:

Year Interest Income Tax Rate Tax
2019                 1,500 28%                 420
2020                 2,150 25%                 538
2021                 2,365 25%                 591
2022                    605 25%                 151
                6,620             1,700
