Final answer:
To establish the Kokorapolus's actual tax, we must compute their taxable income and apply the correct tax rates; however, the lack of a specific tax schedule for their income level prevents conclusively determining the tax amount.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the Kokorapolus's actual tax, we need to determine their taxable income first and then calculate the tax using the applicable rates. Their gross income is $35,836 with adjustments to income of $1,000, hence their adjusted gross income would be $35,836 - $1,000 = $34,836. They have $8,906 in itemized deductions and four exemptions of $3,100 each, which totals $12,400 in exemptions. The formula for taxable income is adjusted gross income - (itemized deductions + exemptions). Therefore, their taxable income is $34,836 - ($8,906 + $12,400) = $13,530.
Next, we apply the tax calculation method using the provided tax brackets. Using the example from the reference, if the taxable income was say $20,000, the tax would be $837.50 + 0.15 × ($20,000 - $8,375), which equals $2,581.25. However, with a taxable income of $13,530, we cannot accurately determine the tax without the specific tax schedule that applies to their income. The reference does not provide the pertinent tax brackets or rates for the taxable income of $13,530. Therefore, we cannot conclusively answer the question regarding their actual tax without more information.
