    Not sure what your professor is trying to get at. The “our way” is the “IRS way”. Those brackets in the “IRS way” approach are not the corporate tax brackets. Also, you don't reach the 39% bracket until $100k is breached.

    if we, as an accountant, forget to do the surtax exemption than the IRS does it their way which includes the loss or something
