Concrete Works manufactures and sells cement trucks. For the previous year, their taxable income was $6,775,989.00. They have

to pay a federal tax rate of 35%, a state tax rate of 8%, and a local tax rate of 2%. As part of their loan package for the business, the

company has to pay $3,200,000.00 after the taxes are paid each year to go against the principal amount of the loan. The profit after

taxes and principal reduction can be determined by the equation

p () = 0.586041 - 3,200,000,

where x is their taxable income. How much profit does the company have after paying taxes and reducing the principal on the loan?

    You have the right equation.

    p (x) = 0.586041x - 3,200,000

    3200000 of course represents the deduction from the loan

    0.586041 - this number represents the amount of money left after taxes (58.6041% of the total is left)

    We get this by taking into account all the taxes on top of another ...

    35% federal tax = 65% left

    35% federal tax and 8% state tax = 65% x 92% left

    35% federal tax and 8% state tax and 2% local tax = 65% x 92% x 98% left = 58.6041%

    To get the profit plug in the given taxable income for x.

    p (6775989) = 0.586041 (6775989) - 3,200,000 = $771,007.37 approx.

    answer: $771,007.37 approx.
