Respuesta :

Answer:

$6,840

Explanation:

Given that:

Mason receives a salary amount of  $180,000

Taxable business income = $400,000 × 50%

Adjusted Gross Income    = $180,000 + $200000

Adjusted Gross Income    = $380000

The net investment income tax liability is:

= (380000 -200000) × 3.8%

= 180000 × 3.8%

= $6,840
