Hi, as discussed in the replies above, please may I know why Lamri still needs to pay an additional corporation tax of 14% (as seen in sample answer part (b) 1st paragraph), since Strymon has already been taxed at 42%, and Lamri will therefore get full credit for such tax already paid?
Thank you.

It is not that Lamri will actually be charged an extra 14%. It is saying that because Strymon will have had to pay tax at a rate 14% more than Lamri pays on its own profits, then effectively Lamri will be getting less than they would have got if they had earned those profits - it is effectively as though they have ended up paying 14% more.
