Sandra would like to organize bal as either an llc (taxed as a sole proprietorship) or a c corporation. in either form, the entity is expected to generate an 8 percent annual before-tax return on a $700,000 investment. sandra’s marginal income tax rate is 37 percent and her tax rate on dividends and capital gains is 23.8 percent (including the 3.8 percent net investment income tax). if sandra organizes bal as an llc, she will be required to pay an additional 2.9 percent for self-employment tax and an additional 0.9 percent for the additional medicare tax. bal’s income is not qualified business income (qbi) so sandra is not allowed to claim the qbi deduction. assume that bal will distribute all of its after-tax earnings every year as a dividend if it is formed as a c corporation.
a. how much cash after taxes would sandra receive from her investment in the first year if bal is organized as either an llc or a c corporation?
b. what is the overall tax rate on bal’s income in the first year if bal is organized as an llc or as a c corporation?

An employer who is considering hiring eva has asked donna, eva’s former supervisor, for a report on eva. in truth, eva’s work for donna has been only average. however, eva is donna’s friend, and donna knows that eva probably will not get the job if she says anything negative about eva, and donna knows that eva desperately needs the job. further, donna knows that if the situation were reversed, she would not want eva to mention her deficiencies. nevertheless, it has been donna’s policy to reveal the deficiencies of employees when she has been asked for references by employers, and she knows that some of eva’s faults may be bothersome to this particular employer. finally, this employer has leveled with donna in the past when donna has asked for a report on people who have worked for him. should donna reveal deficiencies in eva’s past performance? (remember to use one of the three moral theories acceptable for this test to solve this dilemma. any discussion of any personal opinion, religious perspective, or theory other than the moral theories acceptable for this test will result in a score of "0" for this question.)
