100%

The class is Income Tax Accounting. I can't seem to figure out the solution to the following:

Chuck, a single taxpayer, earns $87,500 in taxable income and $2,500 in interest from an investment in City of Heflin bonds.

What is his marginal rate if, instead, he had $5,000 of additional deductions?

Based on the attached chart, I keep coming up with the incorrect percentage. I want to say that it's because of the 2 different tax rate (22% and 24%)
