Answer:
Toby Vail wis taxed for $456
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we make the deductions:
gross pay 18,200 - 1,500 deductions = 16,700 taxable income
Now, we make the tax-calculations:
first $3,000 x 0.015 = $ 45
above:
(16,700 - 3,000) x 0.03 = $411
Total tax levied from the State: $45 + $411 = $456
Notice how the tax is calcualte in brackets to solve for the different taxation rate at different income levels.
