Explanation / Answer
Adjusted Gross income = $31598
Self emloyeed tax = $4804
income tax = $2,730
Recalculate Adjusted gross income after taxes = $31598 - $4804 = 26794
Net Operating Loss is $23,497 for 2017
Carryback NOL $23497 with Adjusted gross income $26794 (for 2015)
AGI - NOL = 26794 - 23497 = 3297
Income after tax = 3297 - 2730 = 567
For year 2016
Income tax = $3075
income after tax = 567 - 3075 = -2508
For year 2017
income tax $4133 will not charged because negative income for 2016 after tax
Deductable amount for carryback NOL in tax is = 2508 + 4133 = $6641
