The Paycheck Series · board-style

A married couple lives in State R, where an orthopedist earns $390,000. Her spouse, a nephrologist, commutes daily across the border to a hospital in State W and earns $265,000 there. The two states have no reciprocity agreement. State W taxes the $265,000 at an effective 5.5%, or $14,575; State R would tax that same income at 4.0%, or $10,600. How should the returns be prepared?
