a) Total Tax Liability is $10,579 when

STCG=9000

STCL=(2000)

LTCG=15000

LTCL=(6000)

b) Total Tax Liability is $8504 when

STCG=1500

STCL=0

LTCG=13000

LTCL=(10,000)

Explanation:

Part a

Total Tax Liability: $10,579

1.

STCG=9000

STCL= (2000)

NET STCG= $7,000

2.

LTCG=15000

LTCL= (6000)

NET LTCG=$9,000

3.

Salary=97000

Net STCG=7000

Net LTCG=9000

AGI=$113,000

Standard Deduction=(24400)

Taxable Income=$88,600

Preferentially taxed income= (9000)

Income taxed at ordinary prices $79,600. Note that tax 9086+143=9229

Income subject to capital gains prices $9,000. Note that (tax(9000x15%)=1350)

Hence, total tax liability = 9229+1350 = 10579

Comer's taxable income ($79,600) before capital gains goes above the maximum 0% amount of $78,750. Hence, the capital gain is taxed at 15%.

part b

1.

STCG =1500

STC= 0

NET GAIN=1500

2.

LTCG=13000

LTCL=(10000)

NET GAIN=3000

3.

Salary=97000

Net LTCG=3000

Net STCG=1500

AGI = 101,500

Std Ded (24,400)

Taxable Income= AGI-Standard Deduction

 Taxable Income=101,500-24,400

 Taxable Income=77,100

Pref Taxed Income (3000)

Income @ ordinary rates = 74100 Note that tax is 1940+6564=8504)

Income subject to capital gains rates = 3000 Note that (tax (3000x0%)=0)

Total tax liability

 $8,504 + $0

 $8,504

Comer's taxable income is $74,100 (before capital gains). It is below the maximum 0% amount. Hence, $3,000 is taxed at zero percent.
