Answer:

C) $2,200

Explanation:

Interest generated by municipal bonds is not taxed by the federal or state governments. While interest generated by US Securities is not taxed by the state governments, but it is taxed by the federal government. The interest generated by her certificate of deposit is taxed as well as the interest earned by the overpayment of prior federal taxes.

$300 + $400 + $1,500 = $2,200
