A. dividendsminus-received deduction.

Explanation:

This allows companies to avoid mostly third taxes on the same earnings.

It is explained to be a federal tax deduction in the U. S. that is given to certain corporations that get dividends from related entities. The amount of the dividend that a company can deduct from its income tax is tied to how much ownership the company has in the dividend-paying company. However, there are criteria that must be met in order to qualify for a DRD.

The dividends received deduction allows a company that receives a dividend from another company to deduct that dividend from its income and reduce its income tax accordingly.
