    The correct answer will be "$624,750".

    Explanation:

    Harry's income = $1,050,000

    The rate of foreign income tax = 30%

    So,

    ⇒ Foreign country tax = 1050000 * 30%

    ⇒ = $315000

    Through this he get Profit after tax = 1050000 - 315000

    = $735000

    Now,

    ⇒ Withheld tax = 735000 * 15%

    ⇒ = $110250

    After that the fund available to MCC = 735000 - 110250

    = $624750

    Tax of US = 0

    So that after applying the foreign taxes, the fund available to MNC is "$624,750"
