Part 1 What is the marginal tax rate for the company?

Answer 1

Answer: 35%

Step-by-step explanation:

The marginal corporate tax rate is the added tax amount that a company pays for every additional dollar that it makes as income.

It is given in ranges which show the rate to be paid for the amount of income earned by the company.

This company earned $14,500,000 in taxable income and so will fall under the 10,000,001- 15,000,000 bracket which means that their marginal tax rate is 35%.
