Who would pay?

May 11, 2010 at 1:21AM

An income tax increase proposed by DFL leaders would raise taxes on Minnesotans who earn more than $200,000 per couple after deductions and exemptions and on single filers with incomes above $113,000.

Here's what the tax increase would look like:

• A married couple making $250,000 would pay an extra $478.

• A married couple making $500,000 would pay an extra $5,395.

How many filers would be affected? 122,000 out of 2.1 million returns.
