39. BONUS = $24,750 Initial formulas:
Jud Buechler, president of the Supporting Cast Company, has a bonus arrangement
with the company under which he receives 15% of the net income (after deducting
taxes and bonuses) each year. For the current year, the net income before
deducting either the provision for income taxes or the bonus is $299,750. The
bonus is deductible for tax purposes, and the effective tax rate may be assumed
to be 40%.
Initial formulas:
B = .15 ($299,750NI - B - T)
T = .40 ($299,750 - B) * bonus is deductible
B = .15 ($299,750 - B - .40($299,750 - B))
B = .15 ($299,750 - B - $119, B)
B = .15 ($179, B)
B = $26, B
1.09B = $26,977.50
BONUS = $24,750

40. B. Compute the appropriate provision for federal income taxes.
T = .40 ($299,750 - B)
