Assumptions:

This is a hypothetical example intended for illustration purposes only.

This calculator considers only the general capital gain tax rates applicable to long-term capital gains, it does not consider any specialized capital gain tax rates.

This calculator adjusts the regular standard deduction only for old age and blindness.

The calculator limits the allowable amount of the charitable gift deduction to 100% (in 2020 and 2021) of adjusted gross income (note that the amount actually allowed may be less, depending upon the gift recipient and the type of property donated).

This calculator does not take into consideration that certain credits may be refundable if they exceed tax liability.

For purposes of the alternative minimum tax, this calculator considers only adjustments for: the itemized deductions entered and the standard deduction. Any other adjustments and tax preferences are not taken into account.

This calculator does not calculate any state taxes.

This calculator reduces the qualified business income deduction to the extent that the deduction exceeds 20% of taxable income (as reduced by long-term capital gains and qualified dividends). For this purpose, taxable income is computed without regard to this deduction.
