Question 3 • FL-2102373-Personal Finance and Money Management Honors

Keisha is single, has a taxable income of $122,125, and their employer has deducted $21,940 in withholding taxes for the year. According to the IRS, Keisha owes $21,200. Find Keisha’s tax refund or amount owed.

Answer
A
Refund, $740
B
Owed, $740
C
Refund, $100,925
D
Owed, $1,740

Explanation

Compare the $21,940 Keisha already paid through withholding with the $21,200 tax owed. Since the withholding is $740 more than the tax owed ($21,940 − $21,200 = $740), Keisha receives a $740 refund. The correct choice is “Refund, $740.”
