Owed federal tax is $115,689.50, average tax rate is 28.92 percent, effective tax rate is 28.78 percent, current marginal tax rate is 35 percent.

<h3>How much federal tax will she owe? </h3>

What is her current marginal tax rate?

= $45,689.50 + 35% x ($400,000 - $200,000).

= $115,689.50

<h3>What is her average tax rate?</h3>

Average tax rate = Total tax = $115,689.50

Average tax rate = 28.92%

<h3>What is her effective tax rate?</h3>

Effective tax rate = Total tax = $115,689.50 = 28.78%

Total income ($400,000 + $2,000)

<h3>What is her current marginal tax rate?</h3>

Her marginal tax rate on deductions up to $200,000 will be 35 percent. However, her marginal tax rate on the next $100,000 of income will be 35%, and income earned over $500,000, will be taxed at 37 percent.
