For taxable income amounts less than 100,000, the IRS (and TTX) use the IRS Tax tables. So the number TTX used is correct. You can go to the IRS website and get the actual tables for 2024 there as a PDF file. You'll see that the TTX number is correct for ordinary taxable income in the $50 range from 85,400 to 85,450....all the same tax amount.
Once you get around to entering all your numbers, the calculated tax value may be different from the tax tables. That can happen if you have Qualified dividends (box 1b on a 1099-DIV) or long term capital gains, because the tax tables are not directly used in that situation.
