How will this tax credit affect their taxes? A) the tax credit will increase their taxable income by $1,500 B) the tax credit will reduce their taxable income by $1,500 C) the tax credit is added to the tax owed, not the taxable income D) the tax credit is subtracted from the tax owed, not taxable income

• GraceSpwho:  The answer is letter D. The tax credit will be subtracted from the tax owed, not taxable income. This is because a tax credit is something that will be deducted or offset to your liability and that is the tax you owed based on your own taxable income.
