Retirement tax questions

For the first IRA, the $44,800 is taxable because this entire amount was distributed from a traditional IRA. 

 

This was reported on a 1099-R, right? So, on Box 1 you have $44,800, on box 2a probably the same thing, and on box 4 you have the $4,800.

 

In this case, you should just enter the 1099-R as is. What are you having trouble with?
