Answer:

$14,400

Explanation:

Given:

Total taxable income = $60,000

Total distribution paid to the Daisy = $10,000

Marginal tax rate = 24%

Now,

the total taxed received by the IRS

= Total taxable income × Marginal Tax rate

or

the total taxed received by the IRS  = $60,000 × 24%

or

the total taxed received by the IRS  = $14,400

Hence, the answer is option (a)
