Foreign Earned Income Exclusion physical presence test issue

Hi, I'm trying to fill out the dates for the physical presence test, but depending range I enter, the amount of federal tax I owe increases.

 

For example, if I do May 5, 2019 to May 4, 2020, the amount due is $0.


However if I do July 15, 2019 to July 14, 2020, I owe over $3000.

 

Does anyone know why this happens? I don't understand why it's not 0 for July. Thanks.
