Answer:

$1,645,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the taxable income is shown below:

Taxable income is

= Book income + income tax expenses - muncipal bond interest + (50% × meal expenses)

= $1,200,000 + $380,000 - $10,000 + ($150,000 × 50%)

= $1,645,000

We simply recognized only 50% of meal expenses and with the help of above items we calculated the taxable income
