Answer:

$70,000

Explanation:

According to general rules, the amount of Dividend received deduction (DRD) that a company may claim depends on percentage the company owns in the stock of the company paying the dividend. Generally Dividend received deduction is pegged at 70% except if the company making claim owns more than 20% of the company paying the dividend

To determine the amount of dividends received deduction Eagle may claim as a 15%  owner of Hawk's stock,

Multiply the taxable income before the dividends received deduction by the deduction percentage ($100,000 × 70% = $70,000).
