Tax Forecasting Worksheet

1999 Tax Guide

his worksheet is designed for estimation purposes only and does not cover all the possible adjustments that may be required to arrive at actual taxable income (for example, social security benefits may be taxable in some circumstances) or to compute final income tax liability (for example, lump-sum distribution tax on retirement distributions). It should be adequate for most purposes and a good starting point for discussion with your tax adviser, who can assist you in making exact calculations.
