Taxable Income   Tax rate

$40 970 to $81 941   22% for > $40 970 but ≤ $81 941
$81 941 to $127 021   26% for > $81 941 but ≤ $127 021

Federal tax in 2010 = 15% × 40970 + 22% × (81491 - 40970) + 26% × (127021 - 81941) + 29% × (134595 - 127021) = $28,977.38
Federal tax in 2012 = 15% × 42707 + 22% × (85414 - 42707) + 26% × (132406 - 85414) + 29% × (134595 - 132406) = $28,654.32
Decrease in federal income tax between 2010 and 2012 = $28977.38 - $28654.32 = $323.06
Percentage decrease =   × 100 = 1.115%
