According to the tax bracket, the individual will owe 28% of their income which is $28,000. However, it is important to note that this is only on the amount over $89,350 as the lower income brackets have different rates. Therefore, the individual will owe less than $28,000 but more than $15,000. The exact amount will depend on their income in the lower tax brackets.
