To calculate the total income tax, a user will enter the taxable income, the federal amount, the state basic amount, the federal/state tax brackets, and rates. The user will enter federal and state income tax brackets and basic personal amounts based on the year by looking at the Internal Revenue Agency (IRS) website. For example, if the tax bracket is 0 to $9,375 at 10%, then enter $9.375 at 10% in the bracket of 10%. If the tax bracket is $9,375 to $37,749 at 15%, then enter the difference between $37749-$9375 equals $28,374 at 15%. For the last bracket, do remember to enter the total taxable income. For example, if the last bracket is 39.60% above $415,051, enter the taxable income under 39.60%; otherwise, the calculator will not give an accurate result.
The "TOTAL TAX, FED (FEDERAL) TAX, AND STATE TAX " is calculated based on the "TAXABLE INCOME, FEDERAL TAX, AND STATE TAX BRACKETS & RATES."
The "BALANCE DUE OR TAX REFUND" is calculated based on "FEDERAL/STATE DEDUCTIONS, OTHER CREDITS, TAX BRACKETS/RATES, INCOME TAX PAID, RSC CONTRIBUTIONS, AND DONATIONS." For example, enter "$90,000" under "INCOME TAX PAID" to see the change from "BALANCE DUE" to "TAX REFUND."
