Here is an example problem from a question that is similar/easier

hollow wigeon
#

which answer are you getting?

humble ibex
#

i know the answer now but I need to understand how to get it for my final exam

#

the answer is 7,723

hollow wigeon
#

yeah

#

the thinking process is, there is a 12% tax on the income from 9526 to 38700

#

so you'll do (38700-9526) x 0.12

#

then there is a 22% tax from 38701 to 82500, however as your income is 57890

#

you will do (57890-38701) x 0.22

#

then add this two results

#

the result will be 7722.46, that is approximately 7723
