(1) Calendar year. Baseline is current law. Proposal is current law without the mortgage interest deduction. The estimates assume that individuals pay down their mortgage in response to a smaller tax benefit for mortgage interest. (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.
