Answer: $300,000
Explanation:
Given that,
Taxable income,
First quarter = $100,000
Second quarter = $50,000
Third quarter = $90,000
we need to annualized the cumulative taxable income of first half of the year that will have taxable income for the first and second quarters.
Annualizing the cumulative taxable income:
= 2 × (First quarter taxable income + Second quarter taxable income)
= 2 × ($100,000 + $50,000)
= $300,000
Therefore, Omnidata's annual estimated taxable income for purposes of calculating the third quarter estimated payment is $300,000.
