Taxpayers - John

Income = $52,700

This income is within tax bracket of $27,051 to $65,550 with tax rate of 27.5%.

Thus, the marginal tax rate for Giannis is 27.5%.

Calculate the tax amount -

Tax amount = ($27,050 * 0.15) + ($25,650 * 0.275)

Tax amount = $4,057.50 + $7,053.75

Tax amount = $11,111.25

The tax amount for John is  $11,111.25

Calculate the average tax rate -

Average tax rate = Tax amount/Income

Average tax rate = $11,111.25/$52,700

Average tax rate = 0.211 or 21.1%

The average tax rate for John is 21.1%.

 

 

Todd:

Income = $132,500

This income is within the tax bracket of $65,551 to $136,750 with tax rate of 30.5%.

Calculate the tax amount -

Tax amount = ($27,050 * 0.15) + ($38,500 * 0.275) + ($66,950 * 0.305)

Tax amount = $4,057.50 + $10,587.50 + $20,419.75

Tax amount = $35,064.75

The tax amount of Todd is $35,064.75

Calculate the average tax rate -

Average tax rate = Tax amount/Income

Average tax rate = $35,064.75/$132,500

Average tax rate = 0.265 or 26.5%

The average tax rate for Todd is 26.5%

This income comes within tax bracket of $136,751 to $297,350 with tax rate of 35.5%.

Thus, the marginal tax rate for Glen is 35.5%

Calculate the tax amount -

Tax amount = $4,057.50 + $10,587.50 + $21,716 + $35,588.75

Tax amount = $71,949.75

The tax amount of Glen is $71,949.75

Calculate the average tax rate -

Average tax rate = Tax amount/Income

Average tax rate = $71,949.75/$237,000

Tax amount = $4,057.50 + $10,587.50 + $21,716 + $57,013 + $6,998.90

Tax amount = $100,372.90

The tax amount of Jake is $100,372.90
