example

total box 5  $600000

less $250000

net $350000

times 2.35%

result $8225

add $3625

result $11850

total box 6 $8700

$11850-8700= $3150 net additional owed 

 

say total withheld was $10,000 so net additional owed is now $1850

then schedule 1 line 11 would be $3150 ($350,000 - excess over $250,000 - times .9%)

$1300 ($10000less $8700) will appear as additional withholding on line  25c of the 1040
