Verified step by step guidance

Step 1: Understand the tax table provided. The table specifies different tax rates for different income brackets. For example, up to $10,000 is taxed at 10%, $10,001 to $30,000 is taxed at 15%, $30,001 to $50,000 is taxed at 20%, and income above $50,000 is taxed at 25%.

Step 2: Break down the taxable income of $40,000 into the relevant brackets. The first $10,000 falls into the 10% bracket, the next $20,000 (from $10,001 to $30,000) falls into the 15% bracket, and the remaining $10,000 (from $30,001 to $40,000) falls into the 20% bracket.

Step 3: Calculate the tax for each bracket. For the first bracket, multiply $10,000 by 10% ($10,000 \times 0.10$). For the second bracket, multiply $20,000 by 15% ($20,000 \times 0.15$). For the third bracket, multiply $10,000 by 20% ($10,000 \times 0.20$).

Step 4: Add the tax amounts from each bracket together. This will give you the total tax owed for the taxable income of $40,000.

Step 5: Verify your calculations to ensure accuracy and confirm that the total tax matches the expected answer provided in the problem.
