Marc and Michelle are married and earned salaries this year of $64,000 and $12,000, respectively. In addition to their salaries,

they received interest of $350 from municipal bonds and $500 from corporate bonds. Marc contributed $2,500 to an individual retirement account, and Marc paid alimony to a prior spouse in the amount of $1,500 (under a divorce decree effective June 1, 2005). Marc and Michelle have a 10-year-old son, Matthew, who lived with them throughout the entire year. Thus, Marc and Michelle are allowed to claim a $2,000 child tax credit for Matthew. They are also able to claim $2,900 in recovery rebate credit ($2,400 for Marc and Michelle and $500 for Matthew). Assume they did not receive the recovery rebate in advance. Marc and Michelle paid $6,000 of expenditures that qualify as itemized deductions and they had a total of $3,500 in federal income taxes withheld from their paychecks during the year. (Use the tax rate schedules).
A. What is Marc and Michelle’s gross income?
B. What is Marc and Michelle’s adjusted gross income?
C. What is the total amount of Marc and Michelle’s deductions from AGI?

Answer:

I will use the 2020 tax schedule since recovery rebate credit applies to 2020:

Marc and Michelle's gross income = Marc's and Michelle's salaries + interest from corporate bonds = $64,000 + $12,000 + $500 = $76,500

they should choose the standard deduction since it is higher than their itemized deductions = ($24,400)

contribution to IRA = ($2,500)

alimony payment = ($1,500) the divorce agreement was settled on 2005

Marc and Michelle's taxable income = $48,100

Marc and Michelle's tax liability = $1,975 + [12% x ($48,100 - $19,750)] = $5,377

Interests on municipal bonds is not taxable.

The amount of taxes that they owe = $5,377 - $3,500 (federal tax withholdings) = $1,877

Refundable tax credits:

$2,000 in child tax credit

$2,900 in recovery rebate credit

total = $4,900

taxes payable or refund = tax liability - refundable tax credits = $1,877 - $4,900 = -$3,023.

Marc and Michelle should get a refund for $3,023
