calculations for d:

$150,000 x 6% = $9,000

$50,000 x 6% = $3,000

$115,000 - $12,000 = $103,000

$200,000 - $12,000 = $188,000

calculations for e:

$150,000 x 6% = $9,000

$40,000

$50,000 x 6% = $3,000

$70,000

$115,000 - $122,000 = -$7,000

$200,000 - $122,000 = $78,000 / 2 = $39,000

calculations for fe:

$150,000 x 6% = $9,000

$40,000

$50,000 x 6% = $3,000

$70,000

$115,000 - $122,000 = -$7,000

$200,000 - $122,000 = $78,000 x 20% = $15,600

$78,000 - $15,600 = $62,400 / 2 = $31,200
