Question

Answer:

Answer:£7,440Step-by-step explanation:We have been given the tax rates as follows:$0-$11,000 = No tax.$11,000-$43,000 = 20%.$43,000-$150,000 = 40%.Earnings over $150,000 = 45%.Since last year Carys earned $45,600, so we will have to find the tax paid by her for 11,000-43,000 at rate of 20%, then the tax for amount over 43,000 at the rate of 40%Therefore, Carys paid an amount of $7,440 in tax.
