Explanation:

Your question isn't complete but I checked online and found the remainder of the question to be:

"Calculate the before-tax profit needed to achieve an after-tax target of $300,000".

The before tax profit will be:

= After tax profit / (1 - Tax rate)

= $300,000 / (1 - 40%)

= $300,000 / (1 - 0.4)

= $300,000 / 0.6

= $500,000

Therefore, the before-tax profit needed to achieve an after-tax target of $300,000 will be $500,000
