The effective tax rate for the current year is 29.5%. What is Kasar’s actual tax rate for the current year?

Respuesta :

Answer: [tex]Actual\ tax\ rate = 31.70[/tex]

Explanation:

Given:

Net income(before taxes) = $335,000

Effective tax rate for the current year = 29.5%.

We'll compute the actual tax rate using the formula given below:

[tex]Actual\ tax\ rate = \frac{Income\ tax\ expense}{Taxable\ income}[/tex]

⇒ Taxable Income = Net income(before taxes) - Interest revenue + Insurance premiums

Taxable Income = $335,000 -  $35,000 + $12000

∴ Taxable Income = $312,000

⇒ Income tax expense = Income × Effective tax rate

Income tax expense = $335000 × 0.295

∴ Income tax expense = $98,825

Equating these two value in above formula, we get;

[tex]Actual\ tax\ rate = \frac{98825}{312000}[/tex]

[tex]Actual\ tax\ rate = 31.70[/tex]
