Turbo Tax miscalculation?

Turbo Tax calculated my estimated taxes for 2021 while preparing my 2020 taxes.   It was supposed to calculate 110% of my 2020 taxes... which it says would be $14,165.   But line 24 of Form 1040 says my total tax for 2020 was $15,041.   Something is wrong there... 

 

I paid the estimated taxes that Turbotax suggested of $14,165 for the 2021 year, and now I owe an underpayment of estimated taxes penalty of $43 because I didn't pay 110% of my 2020 taxes!      What gives?
