Question
Allison Boone had been practicing medicine for seven years. Her specialty
was neurology. She had received her bachelor’s degree in chemistry from Kent State University and her M.D. from Washington University in St. Louis. She did her residency at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital in New York. Allison practiced neurology in a clinic with three other doctors in Hurst, Texas.
Her husband, Samual L. Boone, held an administrative position for Harris Methodist HMO in Arlington, Texas. Allison and Samuel had been married for five years and were parents of young twin sons, Todd and Trey. They lived in Arlington in a beautiful four-room house overlooking Lake Arling-ton.
Allison normally left for work at 7:30 a.m. and closed her office at 5:30 p.m. to return home. On Tuesday, July 6th, 1999 at 5:15 p.m., she received an emergency call from Arlington General Hospital and immediately went to the hospital to help a patient who had suffered serious brain damage. By the time she had administered aid and helped prepare the patient for surgery it was 11:00 p.m.
On her way home as she passed the Ballpart in Arlington (home of the Texas Rangers baseball team), she was confronted head on by a drunken driver going over 80 miles an hour. A crash was inevitable and Allison and the other driver were killed instantly. The drunken driver was making a late delivery for Wayland Frozen Foods, Inc.
Legal Considerations
The families of both drivers were devastated by the news of the accident. After the funeral and explaining the situation to the children, Samuel Boone knew he must seek legal redress for his family’s enormous loss. Following interviews with a number of lawyers, he decided to hire Sloan Whitaker.
Sloan was with a Dallas law firm (Hanson, Sloan, and Thomason) that specialized in plaintiff’s lawsuits. He had been in practice for over 20 years since graduating from Southern Methodist University (SMU) law school in 1978.
When Sloan began his investigation on behalf of Samuel Boone and his family, he was surprised to find out the driver of the delivery vehicle had a prior record of alcohol abuse and that Wayland Frozen Foods, Inc. had knowledge of the problem when they hired him. It appears the driver was a relative of the owner and at the time of employment he revealed what he termed “a past alcoholic problem that was now under control”. In any event, he was acting as an employee for Wayland Frozen Foods in using their truck to make a business related delivery at the time of the accident. The fact that he was speeding and intoxicated at the time of the impact only increased the legal exposure for Wayland Frozen Foods.
After much negotiating with the law firm that represented Wayland Frozen Foods (and its insurance company), Sloan Whitaker received three proposals for an out-of-court settlement to be paid to Allison Boone’s family. The intent of the proposals was to replace the future earning’s power of Allison Boone, less any of the earnings she would have personally needed for her normal living requirements. Also, the value that she provided for her family as a wife and mother, quite aside from her earning power, had to be considered. Finally, there was the issue of punitive damages that Wayland Frozen Foods was exposed to as a result of letting an unqualified driver operate its truck. If the case went to court, there was no telling how much a jury might assign to this last factor.
The three proposals are listed below. An actuarial table indicated that Allison, age 37 at the time of the accident, had an anticipated life expectancy of 40 more years.
Proposal 1 Pay the family of Allison Boone $300,000 a year for the next 20 years, and $500,000 a year for the remaining 20 years.
Proposal 2 Pay the family a lump sum payment of $5 million today.
Proposal 3 Pay the family of Allison Boone a relatively small amount of $50,000 a year for the next 40 years, but also guarantee them a final payment of $75 million at the end of 40 years.
I NEED HELP DOING CALCULATIONS FOR PROPOSAL 2.

A Ltd, is a company incorporated and carrying on business in Hong Kong, is organizing a pop music concert to be staged in Hong Kong in January 2018. A Ltd has appointed another Hong Kong resident company, B Ltd, to procure the performance of an overseas artist at the concert, for which A Ltd will pay B Ltd $11 million. Ms. Happy, a famous international star singer from the US, has been approached by B Ltd to undertake this performance. The remuneration for her performance in Hong Kong has been agreed as $10 million, payable to Mr. Money, the US resident manager of Ms. Happy. In the performance agreement, there will be a clause providing that when paying the remuneration, B Ltd will be entitled to deduct a sum equivalent to 10% of the gross payment, or any other amount which is sufficient to cover the Hong Kong tax applicable. Ms. Happy is not convinced of the need for this clause and has raised the following challenges: (1) She deals with B Ltd on a principal-to-principal basis and thus, B Ltd is not an ‘agent’ acting on her behalf. Therefore, B Ltd has no authority to deduct any tax from the payment. (2) Should there be any tax liability incurred, an assessment should be made by the Hong Kong Inland Revenue Department and issued to her directly as a demand for tax, given that Hong Kong does not operate a self assessment system. (3) Hong Kong profits tax should be based on the net assessable profits which are calculated by reference to gross income and deductible expenses. The 10% or any other deemed notional percentage has no legal basis.
Required:
(a) Explain why Ms. Happy will be chargeable to Hong Kong tax.
(b) Explain how the Hong Kong tax payable by Ms. Happy will be determined and collected. Note: with the exception of Mr. Money, none of the parties referred to are agents for any other person.
(c) State, giving reasons, whether there will be any difference in the tax position if Ms. Happy incorporates a company in Hong Kong to receive the payment on her behalf.
