The application uses this information to annualize tax for a short year return. You must manually calculate the estimated taxes for the subsequent year.
The application calculates the
Tax year beginning
field as twelve months prior to the date entered in the
Tax year ending
field. If the return is a short tax year or a 52-53 week year for the current tax period, enter the beginning and ending dates for the tax period.
The application calculates this field based on the date in the
Tax year ending
field. The date is used in the Estimate filing instructions and on the Estimated Tax Payments Worksheet.
