You can “adjust” your income by subtracting such things as contributions to individual retirement accounts, student loan interest, and tuition and fees. These adjustments are subtracted from gross income to determine adjusted gross income. Adjustments reduce income that is subject to tax. Note that these adjustments are not available on Form 1040EZ.

Cengage Learning SLIDE 24 Chapter 3 Standard Deduction If you do not have many deductions, your tax may be less if you take the standard deduction. The standard deduction is a stated amount that you may subtract from adjusted gross income instead of itemizing your deductions. This amount changes each year. © 2016 South-Western, Cengage Learning
25.
© 2010 South-Western,
Cengage Learning SLIDE 25 Chapter 3 Tax Credits A tax credit is an amount subtracted directly from the tax owed. It is different from a deduction. A deduction is subtracted from adjusted gross income. A deduction reduces your tax by reducing the amount of income on which the tax is figured. A tax credit reduces the tax itself. The government allows tax credits for certain education expenses, child-care expenses, and other special reasons. © 2016 South-Western, Cengage Learning
