    Look at the form and the instructions and see if the calculation is correct.  The solar credit is large.

    The more I know the more I don’t know.

    Or, review what was in your continuing education classes.

    $ 43,000 x 30% = $ 12,900.

    Don't confuse "he paid" and "financing" because borrowing money to pay is not part of this. The Cost of the system placed in service is what you should be using. How he paid (some downpayment, some borrowed, some with chickens) isn't part of the regulation.
