All the calculations seem to happen here: https://github.com/nick264/gop-tax-plan-calculator/blob/master/client/utils/calculator.js https://github.com/nick264/gop-tax-plan-calculator/blob/mast... Cannot speak to the soundness of the calculations, but there looks to be a ton of guesswork involved, and it does seem fairly simplified in light of the size of the bills being considered.

On a dollar impact basis, there wasn’t much guesswork at all. What there was was a bunch of disparate contradictory sources online so we had to plow through that, given that reading through and internalizing the legislation (both old and new) was quite the bear. A number of folks have already made suggestions on github which is great (and appreciated). I wish we had documented every hard coded number with a source but we only started doing that at the very end of project when we were reconciling different sources. We plan on documenting everything going forward with a source.
