Clarice's capital gains:
- selling of stock = $34,000 - $16,000 = $18,000
- selling of coin collection = $55,000 - $30,000 = $25,000
- total long term capital gains = $43,000
Clarice's taxable income = $73,000
Clarice's ordinary income tax rate 2011:
ordinary income = $30,000 - standard deduction $5,800 = $24,200
- 10% on taxable income from $0 to $8,500 = $850
