Respuesta :

Answer:

22.38%

Explanation:

Given that,

Operating profit before interest and tax = $519,233

Net income = $318,022 thousand

Provision for income taxes = $91,720 thousand

Net non-operating expense before tax = $109,491 thousand

Mattel’s statutory tax rate for 2016 = 37%

Income before income tax:

= Net Income + Provision for income taxes

= $318,022 Thousand + $91,720 Thousand

= $409,742 Thousand

Effective tax rate:

= (Provision for Income taxes ÷ Income before tax) × 100

= ($91,720 Thousand ÷ $409,742 Thousand) × 100

= 0.2238 × 100

= 22.38%
