Normally I'd rant about getting the government out of my life...maybe I'll save the inane stuff for facebook.
But I just checked the mail and got an audit-type notice from the IRS. They agreed with my computations for income and totals after taking out deductions, but disagreed with my tax computation. They think I owe $500 less.
I took their figures, same as my own, and returned to the tax table (which this year I can do due to not selling taxable stocks for a change).
My figures appear right. Their figures appear wrong, and unsupportable by any tax table or computation of which I am aware (their tax includes 5ยข, seemingly not from a tax table).
I'm not going to argue but I think America just gave me a free $500.
I blame my liberal posts and Obama's socialist agenda?

GOT IT!
Ok, I didn't have to file schedule D so I thought I was done, skipping right over the fact I had dividends taxed at a different rate if I used the worksheet as noted.
I re-ran my numbers and came within a dime of the Fed's tax computation.
I will contribute that dime to the cup of coffee I would treat you to fund - except you'll never collect most likely. So also thank you!
