Taxable income= Operating income- Interest expense + 50% of dividend received

Given,

Operating income=   $465,000

Interest expense= $30,000

Dividend income= $15,000

Plugging the inputs,

Taxable income= 465000-30000+15000*50% = $442,500

Tax amount= Taxable income*Tax rate

Given,

Tax rate= 21%

Therefore, tax expense= 442,500*21% = $92,925

After tax income= Taxable income-Tax expense

=442,500-92,925 = $349,575
