Tax Trivia Giveaway #3: High Income Taxpayers

Kelly Phillips ErbJanuary 31, 2012May 28, 2020

Our next tax trivia question is:

In 2000, Vice President Cheney and his wife owed federal taxes of $14,295,058 on adjusted gross income of $36,086,635. After taking into account withholding and other payments, how big a check did the Cheneys have to write when they mailed in their taxes? (I’ll take answers within $100,000)
