** This table is part of a series of tables showing the distributional effects of moving incrementally from current law to current policy. For definitions and further
information, see “Related Tables: Moving Incrementally from Current Law to Current Policy” at
http://taxpolicycenter.org/numbers/displayatab.cfm?template=simulation&SimID=366
(1) Calendar year. Baseline is current law plus a permanent AMT patch at 2009 levels, indexed for inflation; extension of the 10, 25, and 28 percent tax brackets; the
standard deduction and widths of the 10 and 15 percent tax brackets for couples filing jointly all set to double those for singles and higher EITC phaseout threshold for
couples filing jointly. Policy is expansion of the student loan interest deduction, the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), the Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit
(CDCTC), and the Child Tax Credit (CTC).
(2) Tax units with negative cash income are excluded from the lowest income class but are included in the totals. For a description of cash income, see
http://www.taxpolicycenter.org/TaxModel/income.cfm
(3) Includes both filing and non-filing units but excludes those that are dependents of other tax units.
(4) After-tax income is cash income less: individual income tax net of refundable credits; corporate income tax; payroll taxes (Social Security and Medicare); and estate
tax.
(5) Average federal tax (includes individual and corporate income tax, payroll taxes for Social Security and Medicare, and the estate tax) as a percentage of average cash
income.
