What taxes will Patrick pay?

State tax on initial profit is:

= (17,000 - 10,000 - 25 - 25 - 25) x 5%

= $346.25

The federal tax is:

= 25% x (17,000 - 10,000 - 25 - 25 - 25) x 25%

= $1,731.25

Inflation after taxes is:

= (17,000 - 7,000 - 25 - 25 - 25 - 346.25 - 1,731.25) * (1% + 1% + 1%)

= $145.43

Real value in profit is:

= 17,000 - 7,000 - 25 - 25 - 25 - 346.25 - 1,731.25 - 145.43

= $4,702.08
