Hank, a calendar-year taxpayer, uses the cash method of accounting for his sole proprietorship.

a. The after-tax income if Hank sends his client the bill in December

= $26,098.40

b. The after-tax income if Hank sends his client the bill in January:

= $23,700.60

c. Hank should send his client the bill in December.

d. After-tax income if Hank expects his marginal tax rate to be 25% next year and sends his client the bill in January:

= $28,215

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Value of services performed = $38,000

Marginal tax rate this year = 32%

Marginal tax rate next year = 37%

After-tax return on investments = 12%

1. Bill sent in December:

After-tax income

For services rendered = $25,840 ($38,000 * (1 - 0.32))

After-tax return on $25,840 investment for 1 month = $258.40 ($25,840 * 12%)/12

Total after-tax income = $26,098.40

2. Bill sent in January:

After-tax income

For services rendered = $23,700.60 ($38,000 * (1 - 0.37) * 0.990

3. Bill sent in January with marginal tax rate = 25% next year:

After-tax income

For services rendered = $28,215 ($38,000 * (1 - 0.25) * 0.990
