. Unfortunately I've noticed most people aren't that good at math when it comes to these kind of things, or interest, or investments, etc.I figure that after deductions you're pretty much driving for free anyway. But don't think that $100 in deductions equals $100 in tax savings - it only reduces your taxable income by $100. I usually figure $100 in deductions is worth about $25 in actual tax savings. Of course this would depend on what tax bracket you would be in before considering deductions compared to after deductions. Correct me if any of this is wrong.
