This pull request is the second in a series beginning with #1897.
It consists of the three commits 85c63eb and 27acb6b and 98ab493.
This pull request fixes the calculation of
expanded_income
by correcting the omission of three ALD amounts. The current logic used to computeexpanded_income
is convoluted: in part it adds to AGI several amounts that were subtracted from income to get AGI. We plan to replace this convoluted logic in a subsequent pull request. But before doing that we are attempting to fix the convoluted logic so that the reasons for and the magnitudes of the errors in the currentexpanded_income
logic are clear.The three ALD variables and their 2011 PUF amounts (which were missing from
expanded_income
) are as follows:This pull request also fixes the difference table calculation logic so that nan amounts are shown as zeros.
