Doyle and Rosie, who filed jointly, are both on active duty. They have two children, Doyle, Jr. (age 4) and Tiara (age 2). In 2022, Doyle earned $20, 000, of which $14, 000 was combat pay. Rosie earned $24, 000, of which $5,000 was combat pay. How would you prepare their return with regard to the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and the Child and Dependent Care Credit? Calculate the EITC and the Child and Dependent Care Credit two ways: 1) using all combat pay; 2) using no combat pay. Both credits must be calculated using the same income figure. Separately calculate both the EITC and the Child and Dependent Care Credit four ways: 1) using all combat pay; 2) using no combat pay; 3) using only Doyle's combat pay; 4) using only Rosie's combat pay. Each credit should be figured independently; they do not have to use the same income figure. Look at the calculation tables for each credit and add as much of the combat pay as needed to get the largest possible refund for the client. Calculate…
Taylor and Kevin are married and file a joint return. Taylor and Kevin have two young children (ages 3 and 5) that live with them full time. Assume these children meet the criteria for the child tax credit and that Taylor and Kevin are eligible to claim it. Recall that the 2023 standard deduction amount for married filing jointly is $27,700. Also assume that their employers withheld $8,000 of federal income tax from their paychecks. Assuming that Taylor and Kevin's taxable income is $100,000, and considering the facts above, please compute how much tax is due with the couple's return. For your convenience, the married filing jointly (MFJ) schedule is shown below. If TI is over: But not over: The tax is: $0 $22,000 $89,450 $190,750 $364,200 $22,000 $693,750 $89,450 $190,750 $364,200 $462,500 $462,500 $693,750 No limit = 10% of taxable income. = $2,200 + 12% of amount over $22,000 = $10,294 + 22% of amount over $89,450 = $32,580 + 24% of amount over $190,750 = $74,208 + 32% of amount…

Robert and Maisie have one child, Gillie (4). Both parents work full time, and their AGI in 2020 was $194,375. During the year, they paid $8,140 in childcare expenses for Gillie. Robert's employer has decided to offer a daycare flexible spending account (FSA) option for 2021. What would you recommend, and why? I n the end, either option is a good choice because they both reduce their tax. They can claim $5,000 on the FSA and then claim the remaining $3,140 against the Child and Dependent Care Credit. Therefore, Robert should open the FSA. Because their marginal tax rate + FICA tax is more than the Child and Dependent Care Credit percentage they would receive, the FSA is a better option. Robert should not open the FSA; since he would only be able to fund up to $5,000, it wouldn't cover all their expenses.
