in a recent year, a single person could expect to pay $4550 in income taxes on an adjusted gross income of $35,000. how much more tax should the person expect to pay if her adjusted gross income increased by $4000, knowing that this would not move her into the higher tax bracket?

Question

she should expect to pay $___ more in taxes

Answer 1

taxexs = 4,550 / 35,000 = 0.13 = 13 %

35,000 + 4,000 = 39,000

39,000 * 0.13 = 5,070

5,070 - 4,550 = 520 $

OR

4,550 / 35,000 = x / ( 35,000 + 4000 )

4,550 / 35,000 = x / 39,000

4,550 * 39,000 = x * 35,000

x = 4,550 * 39,000 / 35,000

x = 177,450,000 / 35,000

x = 5,070 $

5,070 - 4,550 = 520 $
