HOW INCOME TAXES ARE CALCULATED

  • Initially, the calculator identifies your adjusted gross income (AGI) by reducing your total household income by specific, allowable adjustments.
  • We then subtract potential personal exemptions to arrive at your taxable income.
  • Your taxable income is subjected to relevant tax brackets based on your filing status to determine the total income tax you owe for the year.
