A.State Tax Deductions
B.Single $2500 C.Married $5000
D.Each Dependent $2500

Answer 1

The state taxable income for a married person with a dependent earning $36,480 is $28,980, after a $5,000 deduction for being married and a $2,500 deduction for having a dependent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The state taxable income for a person who makes $36,480, is married, and has a dependent can be calculated by subtracting the applicable state tax deductions from the gross income. If we apply the given state tax criteria:

• Marriage Deduction: $5,000
• Dependent Deduction: $2,500

Therefore, the state taxable income would be calculated as follows:

$36,480 (Gross Income) - $5,000 (Married Deduction) - $2,500 (Dependent Deduction) = $28,980 (State Taxable Income)

This amount represents the income on which state taxes would be calculated.
