1. Cookieco, a domestic corporation, produces the worlds best tasting chocolate chip cookies. In addition to its domestic sales, Cookieco markets its cookies abroad through an extensive network of branch sales offices. Cookiecos operating results for the current year are summarized below, by source and type of income:

   U.S.-source manufacturing profits ...........................	$60 million
   Foreign-source manufacturing profits .......................	$40 million
   Foreign-source passive investment income................	$10 million
   U.S. taxable income...............................................	$110 million

   Cookieco paid $15 million of foreign taxes on its foreign-source manufacturing profits and $2 million of foreign taxes on its foreign- source passive investment income. Assume that the U.S. tax rate is 35%. Compute Cookiecos total foreign tax credit, as well as the amount of excess credits (or excess limitation) in each separate basket of income.
2. Bikeco, a domestic corporation, manufactures mountain bicycles for sale both in the United States and Europe. Bikeco operates in Europe through Bike1, a wholly-owned Italian corporation that manufactures a special line of mountain bicycles for the European market. In addition, Bike1 owns 100% of Bike2, a U.K. corporation that markets Bike 1's products in the United Kingdom. At end of the current year, the undistributed earnings and foreign income taxes of Bike1 and Bike2 are as follows:

   Bike 1	Bike 2
   Post-1986 undistributed earnings	$90 million...........	$54 million
   Post-1986 foreign income taxes	$36 million...........	$27 million

   During the current year, Bike2 distributed a $10 million dividend to Bike1, and Bike1 distributed a $10 million dividend to Bikeco. To simplify the computations, assume that neither dividend distributions attracted any Italian or U.K. withholding taxes, and that the dividend received by Bike1 was exempt from Italian taxation. Compute Bikecos deemed-paid foreign tax credit, as well as the residual U.S. tax, if any, on the dividend Bikeco received from Bike1. Assume the U.S. tax rate is 35%.
3. Racketco, a domestic corporation, manufactures tennis rackets for sale in the United States and abroad. Racketco owns 100% of the stock of Teny, a foreign marketing subsidiary that was organized in Year 1. During Year 1, Teny had $15 million of foreign-based company sales income, paid $3 million in foreign income taxes, and distributed no dividends. During Year 2, Teny had no earnings and profits, paid no foreign income taxes, and distributed a $12 million dividend. Assuming the U.S. corporate tax rate is 35%, what are the U.S. tax consequences of Tenys Year 1 and Year 2 activities?
