Answer: $300,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Taxable income,

First quarter = $100,000

Second quarter = $50,000

Third quarter = $90,000

we need to annualized the cumulative taxable income of first half of the year that will have taxable income for the first and second quarters.

Annualizing the cumulative taxable income:

= 2 * (First quarter taxable income + Second quarter taxable income)

= 2 * ($100,000 + $50,000)

= $300,000

Therefore, Omnidata's annual estimated taxable income for purposes of calculating the third quarter estimated payment is $300,000.
