Applicable Tax Year: 2019

John Q. Public (age 49) and his wife Karen (age 46) file a joint return. They have three children: Elizabeth (age 24) who is a full time law student at State Law School, Charles (age 21), who is a full time student at State College, and William (age 19). Charles earned $5,000 and Elizabeth earned $7,000 from summer jobs. John and Karen provide over half the suppor for all three children. Karen's mom (age 75), who is blind, resides in a nursing home. She received $25,000 in social security benefits. John and Karen provide over one-half of the mom's support. The couple received salaries totalling $150,000, qualified business income of $13,000 from a partnership investment, $4,000 of interest income from a State of IL municipal bond, and $2,000 of interest income from a savings account. They sold their home this year for $575,000. They initially purchased their home three years ago for $450,000. The gain on the sale qualified for the exclusion from the sale of a principal residence. The Jacksons incurred $23,000 of itemized deductions and had $21,500 of federal tax withheld from their paychecks.

Question: Using the income tax formula for an individual taxpayer, calculate the Jacksons taxable income, federal tax arising from that taxable income, and any refund or balance due (note, it is important to show your work, and not just the final answers).
