Starting with the last item first, I checked the IRA calculation using only the spouse's income and it matches the allocated IRA. Glad to know that's the reason and that the IRA deduction wasn't developed by a random number generator.
On the royalty and farm income, I'm entering the royalty income through the O & G screen. I agree, I've had good success with Lacerte's O & G module. All my items are set to Oklahoma, and here's what I'm getting:
The Federal amounts on lines 12 and 13 are net figures while the Oklahoma amounts are revenue amounts. The business income is KS income. Interestingly, if I create a second Schedule C and set it to Oklahoma and include revenue and expenses of at least $80 each the OK farm and royalty income is corrected. I'm not sure if the $80 threshold is due to some other field or what. Also, I just realized that the additional Oklahoma depletion is being deducted.
The OK numbers are small enough the client won't have any tax problems so I can always file a return that is technically incorrect but with a correct result although that's not my preference. My real concern is with other clients I have who have income in both states and whether they'll be correct.
