Answer:

The tax for all five cases is as calculated in the attached figure.

Explanation:

The calculation of tax for individual  income is calculated as attached in the excel file screen shot. As year is not mentioned, the tax tables are used for 2015 (As observed by finding a reference question).

Net Taxable Income: |$62449

Dividend:                    |$   (560)

--------------------------------------------

Taxable Income         |$ 61889

(excluding dividend)  |

For income bracket  |            Tax Rate               |             Tax Amount

       (0-18450)           |    10% of Income             |         18450*10%= $1845              

  (18451-74900)        |    15% of Income             | (61889-18450)*10%=  $6525.85

Total Tax (Less Dividend)                                  | $ 8360.85

Tax on Dividend is given as

0%  for Income less than 74900. As income is less than the value so the dividend tax is 0.

Total Tax=Tax(less dividend)+Tax(dividend)

Total Tax=$ 8360.85    

The other entries are calculated using the same in the excel and the screenshot is attached below.
