Example #1

Mary Ann Smith, a timely taxpayer, has 2005 TAXABLE INCOME of $125,000. Smith's income falls between:

Between

But Not Over

Base Tax

+ Rate

Of the Amount Over

$102,800
$166,450
$21,197.50
28%
$102,800

 

Mary Ann Smith's Estimated Taxes

  = Base Tax + (Rate x Amount Over)
  = $21,197.50 + [.28 x ($125,000 - $102,800)]
  = $21,197.50 + (.28 x $22,200) 
  = $21,197.50 + $6,216.00 
  = $27,413.50

Mary Ann's total tax dropped over $170.00 from her 2004 tax return, using the 2004 income tax rate table for heads of household.

 

Example #2

Michael Doerty, a father and the head of his household, has an estimated TAXABLE INCOME of $62,000. Doe's income falls between:

Between

But Not Over

Base Tax

+ Rate

Of the Amount Over

$39,800
$102,800
$5,447.50
25%
$39,800

 

Michael Doerty's Estimated Taxes

  = Base Tax + (Rate x Amount Over)
  = $5,447.50 + [.25 x ($62,000 - $39,800)]
  = $5,447.50 + (.25 x $22,200)
  = $5,447.50 + $5,550.00 
  = $10,997.50 

Michael also saved over the previous year. His total tax dropped over $100.00 from his 2004 tax return, using the 2004 income tax rate table for heads of household.
