Question

HippCo Federal taxable income for the year is $1,000,000. Its operations are confined to Oregon and Montana. HippCo generates only business and interest income for the year.

Federal cost recovery deductions totaled $200,000. Montana used this amount, but Oregon allowed only $120,000.

Interest income of $25,000 from Oregon bonds was excluded from Federal taxable income. Oregon taxes all municipal bond income, while Montana taxes all such interest except that from its own bonds.

Oregon's state taxable income is $___________ and Montana's state taxable income is $__________

Interest income from Treasury bonds is already included in Federal Income. So Oregon's state taxable income is $905,000 and Montana's state taxable income is $825,000.
