Closer to $8700 tax...assuming it's all W-2 income or ordinary income (no capital gains)

[Edited based on discussion below]

With the vehicle credits being used up first, and ordinary income right at 100,000, the 7500 credit matches your tax, with the refundable part of the child tax credits remains...thus a refund of ~2,800  (along with any other withholding you had done during the year).

This does assume you are using the 24,000 Standard deduction in 2018.
