4. ALTERNATIVE MINIMUM TAX
Taxpayers are subject to an “alternative minimum tax” (AMT) instead of the regular income tax when they have
substantial “preference income.” This is income that is treated favorably under the regular income tax. Basically,
the taxpayer must pay whichever tax is higher—the regular tax or the AMT.

or c) a child age 19-23 whose earned income does not exceed one-half of his or her support, and who is a
full time student. Furthermore, the child does not file a joint income tax return and has at least one living parent
at the end of the tax year.

INCOME TAXATION OF SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFITS
Retired taxpayers with incomes over certain threshold amounts are subject to income tax on their Social
Security retirement benefits. The special tax base for determining whether a taxpayer’s benefits are subject to
tax equals one-half of Social Security benefits, plus all other income, including tax-exempt income.
For example, a married couple filing jointly has an adjusted gross income of $30,000, tax-exempt interest of
$3,000, and receives $24,000 in Social Security benefits. The special tax base for the couple equals $45,000, and
$6,850 of the Social Security benefits are taxable (.50 x $12,000 = $6,000; .85 of $1,000 = $850; total $6,850).

5. PERSONAL EXEMPTION
STANDARD DEDUCTION
Amount - The standard deduction is a flat amount that a taxpayer may deduct in lieu of itemizing deductions.
The standard deduction amount for each taxpayer category is:
Taxpayer Status 201 201
Single $6,3 0 $ , 0
Married filing jointly $12, 00 $ , 00
Head of household $9,3 0 $ , 0
Married filing separately $6,3 0 $ , 0
Age 65 or Blind - Taxpayers who are age 65 or over, or who are blind, may take an additional standard
deduction (provided they do not itemize). In 2017, the additional standard deduction amount is $1,250 if
married or $1,550 if the person is unmarried or not a surviving spouse.
ITEMIZED DEDUCTIONS
Interest Expense - Most personal interest paid is not deductible, with certain important exceptions:
Deductible Not Deductible
1. Mortgage interest on one or two residences
up to $1,000,000 of indebtedness
2. Points on home mortgages
3. Home equity loan interest up to $100,000
of indebtedness
4. Business interest
5. Investment interest up to net investment income
1. Auto loan interest
2. Credit card interest
3. Most other consumer loan interest
4. Prepaid interest other than points on home
mortgages
Amount - The personal exemption amount that a taxpayer may claim for himself or herself and each
dependent is set at $4,050 in 201 . For example, in 201 , a married couple with two dependent children files a
joint tax return and claims four personal exemptions for a total of $16, 00. A taxpayer (usually a child) cannot
claim a personal exemption if he or she can be claimed as a dependent by another (usually a parent).
Reduction of Personal Exemption Amount - Personal exemptions claimed in 201 must be reduced by 2%
for each $2,500 ($1,250 for married filing separately) or fraction thereof of AGI in excess of a certain
amount. For 201 , the threshold AGI amounts are $31 , 00 for married persons filing jointly, $28 , 50 for
heads of households, $2 , 00 for singles, and $15 , 0 for married persons filing separately.
-
State and Local Taxes - Itemizers may deduct either state and local income taxes, or state and local sales
taxes. Also, itemizers may deduct state and local real property taxes and personal property taxes. However,
tax-payers may not deduct state and local taxes in calculating the AMT unless they are deductible in computing
adjusted gross income (“above the line” deductions, not itemized).
Medical and Dental Expenses - Expenses paid for nearly all medical, dental and vision care during the year,
and not reimbursed by insurance or other means, are deductible by itemizers to the extent that the total of such
expenses exceeds % of AGI in 201 .
Losses - Individuals can deduct three basic types of losses: 1) business losses incurred in the taxpayer’s unin-
corporated business, 2) investment losses if the investment was originally motivated by profit, and 3) casualty
and theft losses, but each separate loss is reduced by $100, and the total of such losses is only deductible to
the extent it exceeds % of AGI .
Reduction of Itemized Deductions - Itemized deductions claimed in 201 must be reduced by 3% of AGI in
excess of a certain amount based upon the taxpayer’s income tax filing status, and the maximum reduction is
80%.The AGI threshold amounts for 201 are $31 , 00 for married persons filing jointly, $2 , 50 for heads of
households, $2 , 00 for singles, and $15 , 0 for married persons filing separately.

Sale of a Principal Residence - A seller of any age who has owned and used real property as a principal
residence for at least two of the last five years can exclude from gross income up to $250,000 ($500,000 if
married filing jointly) of gain realized on a sale.
Additional Tax on High-Income Taxpayers - In 201 and 201 , individuals with more than $200,000 in
income ($250,000 for a married couple filing jointly), who also have investment income, will pay an additional
tax of 3.8% on net investment income or the excess of modified adjusted gross income over the threshold
amount (whichever amount is less). Investment income is defined as the sum of gross income from items such
as interest, dividends, annuities, royalties, and rents, as well as net gain attributable to the disposition of
property (i.e., capital gains).

INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS
9. REQUIRED MINIMUM DISTRIBUTIONS: UNIFORM LIFE TABLE
The Uniform Life Table is used to calculate lifetime required minimum distributions (RMDs) from qualified retire-
ment plans, including 401(k) and 403(b) plans, and IRAs. To use this table, owners must be:
• Unmarried
• Married with a spouse who is not more than ten years younger
• Married with a spouse is not the sole beneficiary of the account
Married owners whose spouse is more than 10 years younger determine the appropriate life expectancy using the
Joint and Last Survivor Table.
For every “distribution calendar year” (a calendar year for which a minimum distribution is required), find (1)
the account balance on December 31st of the preceding year, (2) the account owner’s age on his or her birth-
day in the distribution calendar year, and (3) the divisor that corresponds to that age in the year of the distribu-
tion for the Uniform Lifetime Table. The RMD for the distribution calendar year is (1) divided by (3).
IRAs funded with annuities may have additional benefits that need to be included when calculating RMD
payments.
Roth IRA
Contribution Limit - In 201 and 201 , the lesser of $5,500 ($6,500 for taxpayers age 50+) or earned income.
Contribution Limit Based on Modified Adjusted Gross Income - In 201 and 201 , the amount taxpayers
can contribute to a Roth IRA is subject to a MAGI phase-out.
• In , the MAGI phase-out on Roth IRA contributions by single taxpayers begins at $11 ,000 and no
tribution is permitted if MAGI is $13 ,000 or more. The MAGI phase-out on Roth IRA contributions for mar-
ried taxpayers filing jointly begins at $18 ,000 and no contribution is permitted if MAGI is $19 ,000 or more.
• In 201 , the MAGI phase-out on Roth IRA contributions by single taxpayers begins at $1 ,000 and no con-
tribution is permitted if MAGI is $13 ,000 or more. The MAGI phase-out on Roth IRA contributions for mar-
ried taxpayers filing jointly begins at $18 ,000 and no contribution is permitted if MAGI is $19 ,000 or more.

10. REQUIRED MINIMUM DISTRIBUTIONS: SINGLE LIFE EXPECTANCY TABLE
The following section concerns the RMD for individuals who inherit accounts. The required beginning date (RBD)
is the date on which the owner has to begin taking distributions from a qualified retirement plan (age 701/2).
When the owner dies BEFORE reaching the RBD
If the owner dies before reaching the RBD for taking required minimum distributions (RMDs), and there is a des-
ignated beneficiary, use the designated beneficiary’s life expectancy as calculated by using his or her age in the
year following the year of the owner’s death, and reduce by one for each passing year. But, if there is no desig-
nated beneficiary, the entire interest must be paid out by the end of the year marked by the fifth anniversary of
the owner’s death.
When the owner dies AFTER reaching the RBD
If there is a designated beneficiary, there are two options for taking RMDs after the owner’s death:
• Use the life expectancy method using the designated beneficiary’s life expectancy (as described above), or
• Use the deceased owner’s remaining life expectancy at death based on his or her age in the year of death,
and reduced by one for each year thereafter.
If there is no designated beneficiary, the only distribution period available is based on the deceased owner’s life
expectancy in the year of death, and reduced by one for each year thereafter.
Options for the Surviving Spouse as Sole Beneficiary
The spouse may elect to treat the account as his or her own IRA.
In the event the owner dies before reaching the RBD, the spouse may defer payments until the year the
deceased owner would have reached age 701/2. Thereafter, RMDs are calculated based upon the spouse’s life
expectancy.
In the event the owner dies after the RBD, the spouse must take the deceased owner’s RMD for the year of death
(if the owner dies before taking the distribution). And, starting in the year after the owner’s year of death, the
spouse takes RMDs based on his or her life expectancy. OR, the spouse could choose to take a lump sum or
distributions of varying amounts over time (as long as all funds are distributed within five years).
