Raising the 10% bracket to 15% represents what percentage of increase? Hint: The correct answer is NOT 5%.

For completeness, there are two ways to answer this (as you know). It is important to understand the precise distinction between the two (which is very often confused):

1. It is a 5 percentage POINT increase.
2. It is a 50% increase.

You cannot use the two interchangeably.

correct. thanks for the added clarity. I don’t think most readers understand the hidden meaning in MSM stories.

correction to my statement:

To those moving from the 35% to the 39.6% tax bracket-that’s roughly a 13% increase in taxes.

Since we’re going from 6 different brackets to 5, we can only decode the lowest and highest with any certainty.

also, there is no 20% bracket,according to the article...ny mistake.
