Tax liability (round to the nearest dollar): $fill in the blank 2

Expert Solution

Computation of Henry's QBI Deduction and His Tax Liability for 2020:

QBI Deduction = (Net Income - Standard deduction) * 20%

 = ( $125,200 - $12,400) * 20% 

QBI Deduction = $22,560

 

Computation of Tax Liability:

Taxable Income = Net Income - Standard Deduction - QBI deduction

 = $125,200 - $12,400 - $22,560

Taxable Income = $90,240

 

Income between $ 0 to $ 9875 = 10% i.e $ 987.5

Income between $ 9875 to $ 40,125 = 12% i.e 12% of ($40,125 - $ 9875) = $ 3630

Income between $ 40,125 to $85,525 = 22% of ($85,525 - $ 40,125) = 22% of $45,400 = $9,988

Income between $ 85,525 to $90,240 = 24% of ($90,240  -$ 85,525) = 24% of $4,715 = $1,131.60

Hence, Henry's tax liability = $ 987.5 + $ 3630 + $ 9,988 + $1,131.60 = $15,737.10
