Answer:

The correct answer is: O B. $11,840.85

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Income = $62650

Percentage of income held for tax = 18.9%

so the amount of tax will be = Total income * Percentage of Income

= 62650 * (18.9/100)

= 62650 * (189/1000)

= $ 11840.85

Hence the correct answer is: O B. $11,840.85 ..
