Respuesta :

Answer:

28%

Explanation:

Provided information

Purchase value of  local artist's painting = $2,100

After several years, the sale value would be $2,700

Given tax bracket = 12%

Since there is a purchase and sale transactions of local artist's painting  which reflects the capital gain that would be a long term capital gain

So, the tax rate should be 28%, not 12% and at this rate the gain is to be taxed.
