Answer:

D) $7,200 current-year deduction; $300 carryover

Explanation:

Remsco's total modified taxable income for the year = $60,000 (net income) + $12,000 (dividends received deductions) = $72,000

Corporations can deduct charitable contributions up to 10% of their total modified taxable income for the year:

$72,000 x 10% = $7,200

since the contributions made during this year exceeded the limit by $300, that will be the amount of the carryover for future years.

* Modified  taxable income is the taxable  income determined without regard to any  base erosion tax benefit, i.e. total taxable income including any deductions made like DRD
