The balance due to the total tax (regular tax, AMT tax, penalties etc) less the credits.

It already took into account the AMT.

When you entered the AMT area, it was already computed, and while you may have made some adjustments, the total tax did not change. For example, when you entered something the AMT might have gone down or up, and the regular income tax may have moved the same amount in the opposite direction.

If you already paid for TurboTax look at lines 44- 47 of the Form 1040.

If you have not paid you can look at a working copy of the Form 1040 by:
