#4 how should dollar amounts be rounded on the tax return?
#5 how should percentages be rounded?
#6 how would you round $999.51?
#7 how would you round 30.493%?
#8 what form is used by an employer to report wage and tax information to an employee?
#9 where are total wages entered on form 1040? 1040A? 1040EZ?
#10 What does code D in box 12 signify?
#11 What does it mean if the retirement plan in box 13 of the W-2 is checked?
#12 where are state and local income taxes withheld entered?
#13 if the employee thinks his form W-2 is not correct, what should he do?
#14 where can the regular standard deduction amounts be found?
#15 what is the exemption amount for 2007?
#16 under what circumstances must a tax payer use the tax table to determine tax liability?
