You have a $45,500 annual gross income and exemptions totaling $3,000. if the state tax is 1.5% on the first $2,500 and 3% on amounts over $2,500, what is your annual income tax obligation?

For an amount up to $2500, rate of interest = 1.5%

For amount above $2500, rate of interest is = 3%

Hence, amount to be calculated on 3% is
