Screen KYEst - Kentucky Estimates (1040)

Show all hidden content

Overview

Use this screen to complete portions of Form 740, 740-NP, or 740-ES, Kentucky Estimate Tax Voucher and the Kentucky Estimated Tax Payments Worksheet. If the information transferred from UltraTax/1040 doesn't require additional data or coding, UltraTax/1040-KY shows it on the form only, not in the input screen.
Enter state payments in the federal
St Pmt
 screen so the amounts transfer to federal Schedule A. If you enter payments for this state in more than one of the units provided in the
St Pmt
 screen, be sure to use the same fields for each unit. For example, if you use
Total
 in one unit, use
Total
 for all units that pertain to Kentucky. Similarly, if you use the
1st-5th payment
 fields, enter amounts in the payment fields for all units used for Kentucky.

Overpayment Application

Use this section to apply any
2023
 overpayment to
2024
's estimated tax payment.
Application of
2023
 overpayment
These code options are the same as those in UltraTax/1040. They instruct UltraTax CS how to apply any
2023
 overpayment. Your decision affects what is printed on the return and the calculation of
2024
's estimated tax payments.
New clients and converted clients may benefit from global options. See
Setup
,
1040 Individual
, then
Kentucky
 tab. Select
New Client Options
 and enter the code, or codes with which newly created and converted client returns calculate. These fields transfer the global choice to newly created and converted clients. The transferred codes may be changed in these fields if necessary, without being replaced by the global choice made in the
Setup
 screen. These fields are proforma'd from year to year; therefore, only newly created and converted clients are affected by global options.

Estimates - Calculated

To calculate the estimated tax liability and required payments for
2023
, enter
2
 through

 in
Application of
2023

These codes are the same as those in UltraTax/1040. They tell UltraTax CS which method to use to determine the amount of
2024
's estimated tax.
If you enter
2
 through
8
 in
Application of
2023
 overpayment
, UltraTax CS defaults to option

 in the
Estimates - declaration for
2024
 field. If both of these fields are blank, UltraTax CS doesn't generate estimate coupons or filing instruction information.
Amounts for code 5 or 9
If you enter code
5
 in
Estimates - declaration for
2024
, enter the quarterly payments in these fields. These amounts are adjusted by the overpayment applied and print on the vouchers.

 estimates paid

1
,
2
,
3
,
6
, or
8
 in

8,
 Use tax from Tax Projection Worksheet, in

.
Number of
2024
 vouchers desired
The number of estimate coupons defaults to

's estimates are applied to each coupon based on the overpayment code, and the quarter in which the amounts were paid.
Amount to round up each estimate
This field lets you enter rounding specifications for the estimated payments. The estimated payments can be rounded up to the nearest factor indicated. For example, to round up each estimated payment to the nearest $10, enter
10
. If you leave this field blank, UltraTax CS automatically rounds each estimated payment up to the next dollar.
