How do I still owe money to the IRS after withholding when the standard deduction went from $6,350 in 2017 to $12,000 in 2018?

Question about Standard Deduction

Well, there is no more $4,050 Personal Exemption.
$6350 + 4050 = $10,400 in 2017. This has been replaced by $12,000 in 2018.

Question about Standard Deduction

Although the standard deduction increased, the personal exemption was eliminated. Effectively the deduction before taxes was only increased by $1700.
