For both the S and C corporations, Amy will pay 7.65 percent FICA tax on her salary and SHO will also pay 7.65 percent FICA tax on Amy's salary (the FICA tax paid by the entity is deductible by the entity). d) Amy's marginal ordinary income tax rate is 35 percent, and her income tax rate on qualified dividends and net capital gains is 15 percent. e) Amy's marginal self-employment tax rate is…arrow_forwardInformation pertaining to Noskey Corporation’s sales revenue follows: November 20X1 (Actual) December 20X1 (Budgeted) January 20X2 (Budgeted)Cash sales $ 115,000 $ 121,000 $ 74,000Credit sales 282,000 409,000 208,000Total sales $ 397,000 $ 530,000 $ 282,000Management estimates 5% of credit sales to be uncollectible.
