Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Your return did not use the tax table.  Included in your tax return, you will have a Qual Div/Cap Gn Wks (qualified dividend/capital gain worksheet) that will show how the tax was calculated.  The amount of total tax on Line 16 will be calculated on that worksheet.       

 

On the Form 1040 Worksheet, there is a Tax Smart Worksheet that will show you what worksheets were used to calculate your tax if the tax table was not used.   In the example below, you would need to go to the Qualified Dividends & Capital Gain Tax Wks to see how your tax was figured.
