Is the answer D?
(I picked D I think the marginal tax rates are correct, but I'm not sure how to calculate the extra tax paid)
I think the correct answer is B.
For A, income goes from 28000 to 30800, a change of 2800. Since the new income is between 30000 and 50000, the mtr is 20%. Of the change in income of 2800, 2000 was taxed at the 10% rate and the remaining 800 was taxed at the 20% rate. So, .1*2000+.2*800 = 360.
Repeat for Family B.
