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
