14) You are a shareholder in a "C" corporation. This corporation earns $4 per share before taxes.
After it has paid taxes, it will distribute the remainder of its earnings to you as a dividend. The
dividend is income to you, so you will then pay taxes on these earnings. The corporate tax rate is
35% and your tax rate on dividend income is 15%. The effective tax rate on your share of the
corporations earnings is closest to:
A) 15%
B) 35%
C) 45%
D) 50%
Answer: C
Explanation: C) First the corporation pays taxes. It earned $4 per share, but must pay $4 × .35 =
$1.40 to the government in corporate taxes. That leaves $4.00 - $1.40 = $2.60 to distribute to the
shareholders. However, the shareholder must pay $2.60 × .15 = $0.39 in income taxes on this
amount, leaving only $2.21 to the shareholder after all taxes are paid. The total amount paid in
taxes is $1.40 + 0.39 = $1.79. The effective tax rate is then $1.79 ÷ $4 = .4475 or 44.75% which
is closest to 45%.
