Answer:

The amount of the foreign tax credit is $52,500

Explanation:

Given:

Income from Norway = $55,000

Income tax in Norway = 40%

Income from France = $45,000

Income tax in France = 30%

Taxable income from U.S. sources = $200,000

U.S. tax liability = $105,000

Tax paid in Norway = $55,000 × 40% = $22,000

Tax paid in France = $45,000 × 30% = $13,500

Foreign tax credit = (Net foreign income ÷ U.S. taxable income) × U.S. tax liability

= ($100,000 ÷ $200,000) × $105,000

= $52,500
