Filing Status Married Filing Jointly Total Income $79,650 Taxes withheld $5,097 Federal deductions and exemptions$23,200 how do we still owe over $2,000?

The calculation is like this:  79,650 -23,200=56,450 taxable income. From the IRS tax tables the tax on that is $7,544. You had 5,097 withheld so you owe $7,544 - $5,097 = $2,447.
