Josh earned $89,700 in taxable income and files an individual tax return. What is the amount of Josh's taxes for the year?

Respuesta :

Parrain

Answer: $18,836

Explanation:

Josh is in the $82,251 to $171,550 bracket so in calculating the taxes owed, we need to calculate the maximum taxes from the previous brackets to find Josh's taxes.

This is done as follows:

= (8,350 * 10%) + ( (33,950 - 8,350) * 15%) + ( (82,250 - 33,950) * 25%) + ( (89,700 - 82,250) * 28%)

= 835 + 3,840 + 12,075 + 2,086

= $18,836
