The corporation earns $8.00 per share before taxes. After it has paid taxes, it will distribute the rest of it's earnings to you as a dividend (We make this simplifying assumption, but should note that most corporations retain some of their earnings for reinvestment). The dividend is income to you, so you will then pay taxes on these earnings. The corporate tax rate is 25% and your tax rate on dividend income is 20%. How much of the earnings remains after all taxes are paid?arrow_forwardSuppose a firm’s tax rate is 25%. 1. What effect would a $9.26 million operating expense have on this year's earnings? What effect would it have on next year's earnings? (Select all the choices thatapply.) A.

A $9.26 million operating expense would be immediately expensed, increasing operating expenses by $9.26 million. This would lead to an increase in taxes of 25%×$9.26 million =$2.32 million. C. Earnings would decline by $9.26 million−$2.32 million=$6.94 million. The same effect would be seen on next year's earnings. D. Earnings would decline by $9.26 million−$2.32 million=$6.94 million. There would be no effect on next year's earnings. 2.
