Answer:
The correct answer to the following question is option C) $11,000 .
Explanation:
The phaseout limit for married couple filling their return jointly is up to $400,000, but in this case the annual gross income of Rhianna and Jay is $419,400 . So their annual gross income is $19,400 ($419,400 - $400,000) more, and then $19,400 / $1000 = $19.4 , which is approximately equal to $20.
Now the phase out limit would be $20 x $50
=$1000
For the 6 children , the tax credit wold be - $2000 x $6
= $12,000
From the above amount, the phase out amount will be deducted,
= $12,000 - $1000
= $11,000
