Taxman-
I did not provide solutions for all of these since the formula logic
would be the same and only the values would change. Therefore, I
provided examples for the first two on your list and from these, you
should be able to adapt them to your remaining formulas. Just copy
and change the cell references.

For your first item:
=IF(AND(D2="Married",E35349700),(E35-349700*0.35)+94601,0)

For your second item:
=IF(AND(D2="Married",E35195850,E35<349700),
(E35-195850*0.33)+43830.5,0)

Best of luck.
