To compute your 1996 U.S. Federal Income Tax, follow the steps in the
table below. You only need to enter the data in the boldface fields.
JavaScript will perform all the necessary computations for you.
<P>
<I>This program is an example only. Computing your actual income tax is
almost always more complicated than this!</I>
