form 2210 error on line 14 columns a,b and c

I have created a hypothetical for just the first column (Jan - Mar) on Form 2210 AI to show that Turbotax is not calculating the amount on line 14 correctly. This is the case for the 2d and 3d column as well.

 

Form 2210 AI

line 1 Gross income Jan-Mar                                    $35,000

line 2 Annualization rate                                               x4

Line 3  Annualized Gross Income                            $140,000

line 7 Annualized Std deduction                                 $12,550

line 11 Annualized Taxable Income                          $127,450

 

Capital gains (not annualized)                                 $     2,000 Shown in Tax Computation worksheet box

Qualified dividends (not annualized)                               $ 200  Shown in Tax Computation worksheet box

 

Correct Line 14 Tax calculation

Gross income (annualized)                                                 $127,450                                          Tax

Capital gains (annualized)    $2,000 x 4                             $    8,000  x 15%                           $  1,200      

Qualified dividends (annualized)  $200 x 4                          $     800  x 15%                            $    120

Income subject to regular tax(annualized)                          $118,650  x 24% less $$5,979      $22,497 

                                                                                                                 

                                                                                                                                    Total       $23,817
