Answer:

$20,900

Step-by-step explanation:

-The income tax is 25% on first $42,000 and 40% on all amounts greater than $42000

#Tax on first $42,000:

[tex]Tax=Tax \ Rate\times Income\\\\=0.25\times 42000\\\\=10500[/tex]

#Tax on the income balance will be:

[tex]Balance=68000-42000=26000\\\\Tax=0.4\times 26000\\\\=10400[/tex]

Total income tax=10400+10500=$20,900

Hence, the proposed income tax will be $20,900
