Respuesta :

Since C corporations are separable tax entities, Cassowary Corporation will report the operating income and tax-exempt income. An S corporation is a tax reporting entity. Therefore, Barbara will report ordinary business income of $48000 (120000*40%) and tax-exempt interest income of $3200 ($8000*40%) on her individual return.
