State tax filing

Hello, Thank you for your reply. Yes I am referring to a screen within turbo tax. The screen that breaks down taxes for the year.  The heading is "your state returns" And below that is "Let's Review Your New York Numbers" The part I am confused about is the numbers right after. Why is the amount taxed higher than the amount we started with? Thank you for your time.

Amount we start with for New York:     $36,448

(federal adjusted gross income)

What we can subtract:                            -$8,000

- Standard deduction

Amount taxed by New York:               =$38,648
