1.Alimony recapture. Dave and Sue's divorce became final on January 2 of the current year. Dave is an executive for a Fortune 500 company and Sue is starting her own business this year. In the current year (year 1 of the divorce agreement), Dave expects his marginal income tax rate to be 35% and Sue's marginal income tax rate will be 25% because of some start-up expenses of her business. Two years from now (year 3 of the divorce agreement), Dave will retire and will be in the 15% tax bracket, and Sue's business, a sole proprietorship, will cause her to be in the 35% tax bracket. Dave intentionally front-loaded his alimony payments to Sue ($60,000 in year 1, $40,000 in year 2, and $20,000 in year 3). What is Dave's alimony recapture in year 3? Formula: R₃ = P₁ + P₂ -2P₃ - $37,500 (2 points)

Dave's Tax Rate in Year 1: 35%

Sue Tax Rate in Year 1: 25%

Dave's Tax Rate in Year 3: 15%

Sue Tax Rate in Year 3: 35%

Alimony payments in Year 1: $60,000

Alimony payments in Year 2: 40000

Alimony payments in Year 3: 20000

P1=$60,000-(35/100*$60,000+15/100*$60,000)=$30,000

P2=$40,000-(35/100*$40,000+15/100*$40,000)=$20,000

P3=$20,000-(35/100*$40,000+15/100*$20,000)=$10,000

R3=$30,000+$20,000-2*$10,000-$37,500

=$7,500

Would this calculation be correct, or do the tax rates remain irrelevant to the calculation? Why do i need to include the tax rates in the calculation?
