Answer:

$205,000

Explanation:

The computation of the Jagdon’s taxable income is  shown below:

=  Book income - interest income from municipal bonds + excess capital gain  + federal income tax expense

= $150,000 - $5,000 + $10,000 + $50,000

= $205,000

Since the interest income from municipal bonds is exempt so we deduct this amount from the book income as it is included in the book income.
