Solutions

Expert Solution

This is the question of dividend received deduction (DRD).

Taxable income before DRD = Revenues + Dividends – Deductible expenses

= 340,000 + 40,000 – 350,000

= $30,000

DRD adjustment:

Since there is less than 20% holding (as owning is 10%), either 70% of taxable income before DRD or 70% of dividend whichever is lower is subtracted.

70% of taxable income before DRD = $30,000 × 70% = $21,000 (lower)

70% of dividend = $40,000 × 70% = $28,000

Therefore, the taxable income = Taxable income before DRD – Lower amount

= 30,000 – 21,000

= $9,000 (Answer)
