Jamie Lee Jackson, age 26, is in her last semester of college and is waiting for graduation day that is just around the corner! It is the time of year again when Jamie Lee must file her annual federal income taxes. Last year, she received an increase in salary from the bakery, which brought her gross monthly earnings to $3,150, and also opened up an IRA, to which she contributed $200 last year. Her savings accounts earn 2% interest per year, and she also had received an unexpected $2,100 gift from her great aunt. Jamie was also lucky enough last year to win a raffle prize of $3,200, most of which was deposited into her regular savings account after paying off her credit card balance.
