Ricky: Aren’t you done with your Taxes yet?
Shawn: No, not yet.
Ricky: Can I help?
Shawn: That would be great. I think I’m almost done, but it’d be great if you could Look it over. This is the first year I haven’t been Exempt or filed an EZ tax return.
Ricky: No problem. What are brothers for? Okay, you’ve entered your Earnings, including your Salary and Dividends. You have no Dependents…
Shawn: I just hope I picked the right number of Withholdings. I’d like to get a Tax refund, rather than have to pay.
Ricky: Well, you can take the Standard deduction here, but I suggest Itemizing your Medical expenses and your Charitable contributions. It may make a big difference in the calculations.
Shawn: Thanks. I’ll Crunch the numbers to find out. So what do I owe you for all of this help?
Ricky: That depends on the size of your Refund check!
