Answer:

It seems that something is missing in question i.e b) what is the after state taxes profit in the state with the 2% tax rate.

Answer for both requirement is given below in explanation with calculation.

Explanation:

A) After tax profit where state tax is 10%

The after tax profit will be 1,278,000$ (1420000*90%)

B) After tax profit where state tax is 2%

the after tax profit will be 1,352,400$ (1380000*98%)

So we can conclude that option 2 is better because it gives greater after tax profit.
