(1) Calendar year. Baseline is current law. Proposal is the 28 percent limitation in President Obama's American Jobs Act of 2011 which would limit the value of all itemized
deductions and certain other tax expenditures for high-income taxpayers by limiting the tax value of otherwise allowable deductions and exclusions to 28 percent. Estimates
assume that taxpayers would adjust their investment portfolio and optimally pay down their mortgage balance if their tax benefit from mortgage interest were reduced. For a
description of TPC's current law and current policy baselines, see
http://www.taxpolicycenter.org/T11-0270
(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. Proposal is the 28 percent limitation in President Obama's American Jobs Act of 2011 which would limit the value of all itemized deductions and certain other tax
expenditures for high-income taxpayers by limiting the tax value of otherwise allowable deductions and exclusions to 28 percent. Estimates assume that taxpayers would adjust their investment portfolio and
optimally pay down their mortgage balance if their tax benefit from mortgage interest were reduced. For a description of TPC's current law and current policy baselines, see
http://www.taxpolicycenter.org/T11-0270
(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.
