It seemed the $418 was not taxed at all.

Did you receive any tax credit?

No Credit at all. Lines 16 to 22 are zeroes or blanks. Line 23 shows the amount of $537 which represent only tax on self employment income.

Or perhaps you have at least $418 of long-term capital gains and the $418 of taxable income is being taxed at 0%.
