They have loads of information that help you figure out not only your tax bracket but also things like what your expected tax bill would be depending on your taxable income.

Income up to $34,500 lands you in the 15% bracket. The 25% bracket includes income up to $83,600. The 28% tax bracket applies to income up to $174,400. Income up to $379,150 gets taxed at the 33% rate and anything above that gets taxed at 35%.For joint filers, the 10% bracket is for income up to $17,000.

Figure Out Your Tax Bracket?

There is one easy way to figure out which tax bracket you fall into. By viewing a 1040 tax table, you can easily see which tax bracket you fall into. A tax table can show you how much money you will owe in taxes according to the income that you make. Using this tax table can also be helpful for determining the types of standardized deductions you may take. For example, if you find the $40,000 income level on the tax table, then you may find out that you will have to owe about 15% of your income as tax to the IRS.

Lowering your bracket?

The tax brackets are a major indicator of how much money you will pay in taxes. Most businesses obviously fall into the top bracket. They are bringing in large amounts of money, and they thus naturally fall into the top bracket. In order to avoid paying those large amounts of taxes, you are going to need to look for write offs and loopholes to bring your bracket down. When you are able to bring yourself down the ranks of the tax brackets, then you are going to be able to save a lot of money. It is something that all business owners desire, and it is something that they should be going for. The more money that you save, the more that you can put into your business.
