This program computes taxes
  Inputs: 
   Income and marital status
  Outputs:
    Tax due
  Logic:
    Use the marital status to find the correct base and bonus rates and taxes.
    combine the base and bonus taxes, and print out the total.
  Test Cases:
  1) 500, s, 50
  2) 1000000, s:  $245200
  3) 1000000, m: $240400
