Enlarge image | 2023 Form M2X instructions (continued) Include any amount that was credited to estimated tax or applied to pay past due taxes. Do not include any interest that may have been included in the refunds you received. If the refund amount on your original return was reduced by an additional charge for underpaying estimated tax reported on line 35 of the 2023 M2, then when figuring the amount to enter on the 2023 M2X line 33, add the amount from this line to the amount reported on line 37 of the 2023 M2. Lines 35 and 40 Lines 35 and 40 should reflect the changes to your tax and/or credits as reported on lines 1 through 30 of Form M2X. If you have unpaid taxes on your original Form M2, this amended return is not intended to show your corrected balance due. Line 35 If line 34 is a negative amount, treat it as a positive amount and add it to line 25C. Enter the result on line 35. This is the amount you owe, and is due when you file your amended return. You cannot use your estimated tax account to pay this amount. Line 36 If only one of the penalties below applies, you must multiply line 35 by 10% (.10). If both penalties apply, multiply line 35 by 20% (.20). Enter the result on line 36. • The IRS assessed a penalty for negligence or disregard of rules or regulations. • You failed to report federal changes to the department within 180 days as required. Line 38 Interest is calculated as simple interest and accrues on unpaid tax and penalties from the regular due date until it is paid in full. Use the formula below with the appropriate interest rate: Interest = line 35 x number of days past the due date x interest rate ÷ 365 If the days fall in more than one calendar year, you must determine the number of days separately for each year. The interest rate for 2024 is X%. Penalty will be assessed if the additional tax and interest are not paid with the amended return. Line 39 Pay Electronically.
