    The answer is 44.84%

    Explanation:

    39% tax bracket takes back the advantage of the lower 15% and 25% tax rates.

    The process will finish once the income that is taxable gets to $10 million.

    Therefore, you can get the tax attributable to taxable income which ranges from $335,000 to $10 million by using all the rates in the above schedule or, more simply, by multiplying by 34%

    208000*34% = 50000*15% + 25000*25% + 25000*34% + 108000*T%

    70720 = 22250 + 108000*T%

    T=44.84%
