Answer:

24.89 percent

Explanation:

The first $50000 is taxed at 15%;

The next (75000 - 50000) = $25000 is taxed at 25% and so on.

then:

Total taxes

= (50000*0.15) + (25000*0.25) + (25000*0.34) +(18740*0.39)

= $29558.60

Then the average tax rate is given by:

=Total taxes/Taxable income

= $29558.60/$118740

= 24.89%
