a. $8,361

b. $1,2610

c. 26,564

d. 5,427

e. 59,883

Explanation:

a.

Taxable Income = $62,449 - $560

= $61,889

Finding the tax liability in tables:

Tax on 61,889

= [1,845 +(61,889 - 18,450) × 15%]

= 1,845 + 6,516

= 8,361

Subtracting or Deducting the tax on the dividend income

= $560 × 0%

= 0

Therefore, the tax liability is $8,361

b.

Taxable Income = $12,932 - $322

= $12,610

Tax liability is $1,2610

c.

Taxable income = $144,290 - $4,384

= $139,906

Tax will be:

= 1,845 (74,900 - 18,450) × 15% + (139,906 - 74,900) × 25%

= 1,845 + 8,467.5 + 16,251.5

= $26,564

d.

Taxable income = $43,297 - $971

= $42,326

Tax liability will be:

= [1,845 + (42,326 - 18,450) × 15%

= 1,845 + 3,581.4

= 5,427

e.

Taxable income = $262,403 - $12,396

= $250,007

Tax on the qualified income will be:

= $12,396 × 15%

= $1,859.4

Tax liability will be:

= 1,845 {74,900 - 18,450) × 15% + (151,200 - 74,900) × 25% + (230,450 - 151,200) × 28% + (250,007 - 230,450) × 33%

= 1,845 + 8,460 + 19,075 + 22,190 + 6,453.81

= $58,024

Total tax liability will be:

= $58,024 + $1,860

= $59,883
