Federal Tax Credit Electric Vehicle if already getting refund that year?

Trying to gauge if we will qualify for the full $7500 Federal Tax Credit if we purchase a new Electric Vehicle.  I've read some replies on the internet that you can still qualify for full $7,500 tax credit even if you receive a federal tax refund.

 

For example:

Married filing jointly with 3 dependent children

Adjusted Gross Income = $86,000 with Standard Deduction of $24,000

Taxable income = $62,000

Tax table for MFJ = $7,000 

 

Is the "Tax Liability" number that folks talk about the figure that I get from the Income Tax Table($7,000 in this example)? 

 

If so, I assume I can receive $7,000 tax credit even if I get a refund in that year.   Does that mean I will get the $7,000 tax credit on top of my refund(ex: $7,000 + $2000=$9,000)?

 

Also, will other tax credit affect the Tax Liability number?
