Chapeau Company, a U.S. corporation, operates through a branch in Champagnia. The source rules used by Champagnia are identical to those used by the United States. For 2019, Chapeau has $5,200 of gross income: $3,120 from U.S. sources and $2,080 from sources within Champagnia. The $3,120 of U.S. source income and $1,820 of the foreign source income are attributable to manufacturing activities in Champagnia (foreign branch income). The remaining $260 of foreign source income is passive category interest income. Chapeau had $1,300 of expenses other than taxes, all of which are allocated directly to manufacturing income ($520 of which is apportioned to foreign sources). Chapeau paid $278 of income taxes to Champagnia on its manufacturing income. The interest income was subject to a 10 percent withholding tax of $26.
