Answer:
Option (A) is correct.
Explanation:
Cody's undistributed earnings for 2018:
Given that,
Pretax Income = $125,000
Income tax rate for both companies = 30%
Cody declared total dividends = $25,000
Tax = Pretax income × Tax rate
= $125,000 × 30%
= $37,500
Undistributed Earnings = Pretax Income - Tax - Dividends distributed
= $125,000 - $37,500 - $25,000
= $62,500
