    I have a client that has a taxable income of $227,433 on line 15 of the 1040 form. This is a married couple with a joint form. When I go line 16 the tax number is $20,004. If you go the "2024 Tax Computation Worksheet—Line 16" worksheet pg 15 section B and follow the calculation the tax number = $40,664. 

    (227,443X0.24)- 13,915.00= 54,586-13,915= $40,671. 

    I am just trying to figure out if the computer is wrong or if I am making a mistake.

    Thank you,

    Okay, IRA was a mistype in your first question. Now I am beginning to understand.

    Is there anything on line 3a?

    Is there anything on line 7?

    When you Check Return, can you see Worksheets?

    Methinks the error lies with you.
