Answer:

24%

Step-by-step explanation:

For the taxes due on April 2020 (current year taxes):

The Lin household falls under the fourth tax bracket for married individuals filing jointly:

  • tax rate 24%
  • Income between $171,051 to $326,600

If no deductions were available, they would owe $188,000 x 24% = $45,120 in taxes.
