Answer:

$785.34

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the seller's share of the tax bill is shown below:

= Expected estate taxes for the year × number of days of the tax year ÷ total number of days in a year

= $31,50 × 91 days ÷ 365 days

= $785.34

We simply applied the proportionate method so that the approximate value could be arrived by taking all the information which is mentioned in the question.
