Amount of of taxabe interest in DNI = 40000/60000* 51000 = 34000

Non taxabke DNI = 51000-34000 17000

Lydia has taxable interest of 34000/51000 * 26000 = $17333.33333

Lydia has non taxable interest of 17000/51000* 26000 = 8666.66667

Kent has taxable interest of 34000/51000*13000 = 8666.66667

Kent has non taxable interest of 17000/51000 * 13000 = 4333.33333

So rounding to nearest $ answer is :

Lydia has $ 17333 of taxable interest and $ 8667 of tax-exempt interest.

Kent has $ 8667of taxable interest and $ 4333 of tax-exempt interest.
