Question:

Randall is attending law school full time and working part time (2023 earnings = \($9,000).
Dianne\) works full time (2023 earnings = \($38,200).\) Their 2023 household income is more than 250% of the FPG (but not more than 300% of the FPG).

Their premiums for coverage vary by the type of plan.

b. The second-least-expensive Silver plan (the benchmark plan) involves premiums of \($468\) per month (covers 2), or \($5,616\) per year.

c. Under a Bronze plan, monthly premiums are \($390\) (covers 2) per month, so the annual cost of coverage is \($4,680\).
What is the after-tax-credit cost of health insurance for the Walls under each of the plans described above?
