Example #1

Mary Mingle, a single taxpayer, has 2013 TAXABLE INCOME of $83,000. Mary's income falls between:

Between

But Not Over

Base Tax

+ Rate

Of the Amount Over

$36,250
$87,850
$4,991.25
25%
$36,250

 

 

 

 

Mary Mingle's estimated taxes:

  = Base Tax + (Rate x Amount Over)
  = $4,991.25 + [.25 x ($83,000 - $36,250)] 
  = $4,991.25 + (.25 x $46,750)
  = $4,991.25 + $11,687.50
  = $16,678.75

Assuming she made the same amount last year, Mary's 2013 total tax dropped $101.25 from last year, using the 2012 income tax brackets for single taxpayers.

 


 

 

Example #2

Sam Sorem, a single taxpayer, has 2013 TAXABLE INCOME of $510,000. Mr. Sorem's income falls between:

Between

But Not Over

Base Tax

+ Rate

Of the Amount Over

$400,000
. . .
$116,239.65
39.6%
$400,000

 

 

 

 

Sam Sorem's Estimated Taxes

  = Base Tax + (Rate x Amount Over)
  = $116,239.65 + [.396 x ($510,000 - $400,000)] 
  = $116,239.65 + (.396 x $110,000)
  = $116,239.65 + $43,560.00
  = $159,799.65

Sam didn't fare as well in 2013 than the previous year, assuming that he earned the same income. His total tax increased $4,538.65 from his 2012 tax return, using the 2012 income tax brackets for single taxpayers.
