(1): Calendar year. Baseline is current law plus an AMT patch. Proposal would extend the 10, 25, and 28 percent statutory individual income rates; and would adjust
the endpoint of the 28 percent bracket to be $250,000 less the standard deduction and two personal exemptions for married couples, $200,000 less the standard
deduction and one personal exemption for singles, the threshold for heads of household would be the midpoint of the thresholds for married couples and singles; the
dollar values would be indexed for inflation after 2009.
(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.

(1): Calendar year. Baseline is current law plus an AMT patch. Proposal would extend the 10, 25, and 28 percent statutory individual income rates; and would adjust the endpoint of the 28 percent bracket to be $250,000 less
the standard deduction and two personal exemptions for married couples, $200,000 less the standard deduction and one personal exemption for singles, the threshold for heads of household would be the midpoint of the
thresholds for married couples and singles; the dollar values would be indexed for inflation after 2009.
(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.
