The corporate tax rate is 34% and the personal tax rate for the firm's investors is 32%. The firm does not need to retain any earnings , so all of its after-tax income will be paid out as dividends to its investors. The investors will have to pay personal taxes on whatever they receive. How much additional spendable income will each investor have if the business is organized as a partnership rather than as a corporation?
