Lance H. and Wanda B. Dean are married and live at 431 Yucca Drive, Santa Fe, NM 87501. Lance works for the convention bureau of the local Chamber of Commerce, and Wanda is employed part-time as a paralegal for a law firm. During 2018, the Deans had the following receipts: Wanda was previously married to John Allen. When they divorced several years ago, Wanda was awarded custody of their two children, Penny and Kyle. (Note: Wanda has never issued a Form 8332 waiver.) Under the divorce decree, John was obligated to pay alimony and child supportthe alimony payments were to terminate if Wanda remarried. In July, while going to lunch in downtown Santa Fe, Wanda was injured by a tour bus. Because the driver was clearly at fault, the owner of the bus, Roadrunner Touring Company, paid her medical expenses (including a one-week stay in a hospital). To avoid a lawsuit, Roadrunner also transferred 90,000 to her in settlement of the personal injuries she sustained. The Deans had the following expenditures for 2018: The life insurance policy was taken out by Lance several years ago and designates Wanda as the beneficiary. As a part-time employee, Wanda is excluded from coverage under her employers pension plan. Consequently, she provides for her own retirement with a traditional IRA obtained at a local trust company. Because the mayor is a member of the local Chamber of Commerce, Lance felt compelled to make the political contribution. The Deans household includes the following, for whom they provide more than half of the support: Penny graduated from high school on May 9, 2018, and is undecided about college. During 2018, she earned 8,500 (placed in a savings account) playing a harp in the lobby of a local hotel. Wayne is Wandas widower father who died on December 20, 2017. For the past few years, Wayne qualified as a dependent of the Deans. Federal income tax withheld is 4,200 (Lance) and 2,100 (Wanda). The proper amount of Social Security and Medicare tax was withheld. Determine the Federal income tax for 2018 for the Deans on a joint return by completing the appropriate forms. They do not want to contribute to the Presidential Election Campaign Fund. All members of the family had health care coverage for all of 2018. If an overpayment results, it is to be refunded to them.

Bill paid 4,000 of lodging expenses that Ashley reimbursed after they were fully documented. Ashley paid the 4,000 to Bill using a check from her sole proprietorship.

Ashley itemizes her deductions and provides the following information, which may be relevant to her return: Ashley made a 26,000 estimated Federal income tax payment, does not want any of her taxes to finance presidential elections, has no foreign bank accounts or trusts, and wants any refund to be applied against her 2019 taxes. Compute Ashleys net tax payable or refund due for 2018. If you use tax forms for your computations, you will need Form 1040 and its Schedules 1, 4, 5, A, C, D, and SE and Form 8949. Ashley qualifies for the 199A deduction for qualified business income. Be sure to include that in your calculations. Suggested software: ProConnect Tax Online.
