- Bonnie is married and has one child. She owns Bonnies Rib Joint, which produces a taxable income of approximately 120,000 per year. a. Assume that Bonnies taxable income is 40,000 without considering the income from the rib joint. How much tax will she pay on the 120,000 of income from the rib joint? b. You work for the firm that prepares Bonnies tax return. Bonnie has asked the partner for whom you work to advise her on how she might lower her taxes. The partner has assigned you this task. Draft a memorandum to the partner that contains at least two options Bonnie could use to lower her taxes. For each option, explain the calculations that support the tax savings from your recommendation.arrow_forwardSheila, a single taxpayer, is a retired computer executive with a taxable income of 100,000 in the current year. She receives 30,000 per year in tax-exempt municipal bond interest. Adam and Tanya are married and have no children. Adam and Tanyas 100,000 taxable income is comprised solely of wages they earn from their jobs. Calculate and compare the amount of tax Sheila pays with Adam and Tanyas tax. How well does the ability-to-pay concept work in this situation?arrow_forwardJuan and Maria, who have two young children, are in the process of obtaining a divorce. Juan expects to have $250,000 of income each year while Maria expects to have $180,000 of income each year. Assume the children will live with Maria after the divorce and that Juan will pay child support. What advice can you provide them regarding the child credit? A. The child credit is phased out for single taxpayers with AGI above $400,000. Juan will be entitled to the child credit because his income is below the threshold. The credit is only available to taxpayers who claim the children as dependents, so it would be beneficial to allow Juan to claim the children. The tax savings received by Juan should be considered when the amount of child support that Juan must pay is being determined. B. Juan's AGI exceeds $200,000, but Maria's AGI does not. The child credit thus would be reduced if Juan claims it, but there would be no reduction if Maria claims it. Overall,…arrow_forward
