If it was the exact spending as the previous year it would be $520 but doubled would be $1,040. Since there is not enough information in the problem I can not say for certain.
well, we know is 10% for the first 7500, but Dan only made 5000 of taxable income, so he's in that range of 0 - 7500, so he only gets to pay 10% of 5000.
