(1) Calendar year. Baseline is pre-EGTRRA law. Includes major individual income and estate tax provisions in EGTRRA 2001, JGTRRA 2003, WFTRA 2004, TIPRA
2006, PPA 2006, TIPA 2007, and ESA 2008. Assumes that the AMT exemption is $62,550 for married couples filing jointly and $42,500 for unmarried individuals,
indexed for inflation after 2007, and that personal non-refundable credits are allowed regardless of tentative AMT. Cost of the tax cuts is financed with a 3.2 percent
levy on the cash income of all non-dependent tax units.
(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) The cash income percentile classes used in this table are based on the income distribution for the entire population and contain an equal number of people, not tax
units. The breaks are (in 2008 dollars): 20% $19,264, 40% $38,201, 60% $67,715, 80% $114,258, 90% $165,007, 95% $232,495, 99% $620,442, 99.9% $2,957,751.
(4) Includes both filing and non-filing units but excludes those that are dependents of other tax units.
(5) 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.
(6) 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.

the AMT exemption is $62,550 for married couples filing jointly and $42,500 for unmarried individuals, indexed for inflation after 2007, and that personal non-refundable credits are allowed regardless of tentative AMT. Cost of
the tax cuts is financed with a 3.2 percent levy on the cash income of all non-dependent tax units.
(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

(3) The cash income percentile classes used in this table are based on the income distribution for the entire population and contain an equal number of people, not tax units. The incomes used are adjusted for family size by divi
by the square root of the number of people in the tax unit. The resulting percentile breaks are (in 2008 dollars): 20% $13,175, 40% $24,896, 60% $42,910, 80% $69,481, 90% $99,405, 95% $140,767, 99% $369,601, 99.9%
$1,787,257.
(4) Includes both filing and non-filing units but excludes those that are dependents of other tax units.
(5) 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.
(6) 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.

(3) The cash income percentile classes used in this table are based on the income distribution for the entire population and contain an equal number of people, not tax units. The incomes used are adjusted for family size by dividing
by the square root of the number of people in the tax unit. The resulting percentile breaks are (in 2008 dollars): 20% $13,175, 40% $24,896, 60% $42,910, 80% $69,481, 90% $99,405, 95% $140,767, 99% $369,601, 99.9%
$1,787,257.
(4) Includes both filing and non-filing units but excludes those that are dependents of other tax units.
(5) 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.
(6) 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.

Number of AMT Taxpayers (millions). Baseline:
18.2
Proposal:
5.5
Note: Elderly tax units are those with either head or spouse (if filing jointly) age 65 or older.
1) Calendar year. Baseline is pre-EGTRRA law. Includes major individual income and estate tax provisions in EGTRRA 2001, JGTRRA 2003, WFTRA 2004, TIPRA 2006, PPA 2006, TIPA 2007, and ESA 2008. Assumes that
the AMT exemption is $62,550 for married couples filing jointly and $42,500 for unmarried individuals, indexed for inflation after 2007, and that personal non-refundable credits are allowed regardless of tentative AMT. Cost of
the tax cuts is financed with a 3.2 percent levy on the cash income of all non-dependent tax units.
(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) The cash income percentile classes used in this table are based on the income distribution for the entire population and contain an equal number of people, not tax units. The incomes used are adjusted for family size by dividing
by the square root of the number of people in the tax unit. The resulting percentile breaks are (in 2008 dollars): 20% $13,175, 40% $24,896, 60% $42,910, 80% $69,481, 90% $99,405, 95% $140,767, 99% $369,601, 99.9%
$1,787,257.
(4) Includes both filing and non-filing units but excludes those that are dependents of other tax units.
(5) 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.
(6) 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.
