Publication 505 tries to step you through the process but is woefully inadequate and a LOT of manual calculations. You don't need to compute the penalty until next April.

| My income, year-to-date, is about 75% dividends and 25% other income (interest, part of Social Security, etc.). In the absence of updated forms, the naive way to figure taxes would be (dealing with "annualized" amounts for the third period estimate) to handle the dividends as the forms have handled capital gains for years. This has the effect of subtracting all the annualized deductions from the non-dividend income, in effect further reducing the effective rate on that income. It also generates some unbelievable results in certain periods. Sure, they'll get me some with AMT, but does anyone have a clue on how this is to be handled in the regular tax calculation? << -------------------------------------------------> << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting > << messages to this newsgroup are at www.asktax.org > << -------------------------------------------------> |
