Tax estimate
Taxable gain or income this fix takes off: $100.00.
Your 2024 taxable income of $42,400.00, filing single, from your return.
$100.00 of short-term gain at 12% = $12.00.
Rates: IRS, Rev. Proc. 2023-34, sections 3.01 and 3.03.
Estimated change in federal income tax: up to about $12.00 less.
This is the most fixing it could change: only if the lines after it on your return used this figure. If they already used the right one, fixing this line changes no tax.
This is an estimate only. Read the note at the top of this report.
