Case contract

solve(status, gross, earned, itemized, conditions, dependent, spouse_itemizes): stipulated deduction rules. Base standard deduction: single 14600, mfj 29200, mfs 14600, hoh 21900 (other statuses 'ERR:status'). A dependent's base is min(base, max(1300, earned + 450)). Then add 1950 per age/blindness condition for single or hoh, 1550 per condition for married statuses. If status is mfs and the spouse itemizes, the standard deduction is 0. The deduction is the larger of standard and itemized; taxable = max(0, gross - deduction). Return [deduction, taxable].

Why this case matters

Tax computations hinge on which slice, threshold, ordering and rounding rule applies at each step; a misplaced boundary silently misstates liabilities.
