Federal Tax Brackets 2024
IRS announces new income tax brackets for 2024
What’s changed for federal income taxes in 2024?
IRS announces new tax brackets for 2024.
Don't forget to include your standard deduction in those calculations!
Additionally, remember that you are only taxed the highest rate on the income that falls into that range.
For a single person, the standard deduction is $14600 for 2024.
Let's say you are single and you earn $62k in 2024.
First, you take off the standard deduction of $14600. That leaves you with $47400 in taxable income.
You're going to pay 10% on the first 11,600, so that's $1160.
47150-11600 is the size of the next bracket, 35550, you'll pay 12% on this or $4266.
47400 in total taxable income -47150 which is the cut off of the previous bracket leaves you with 250 in taxable income for the 22% bracket, $55 for that bracket.
A tax total of $5481.
Obviously, this is a very simplistic scenario and other things may impact your return. You may have additional tax credits or deductions beyond the standard deduction.
