Guarantee of Calculations. 4.11.1 Each Member shall guarantee the calculations performed by its federal free file offering. State returns are not included in this guarantee. For the purposes of this section, the term “Calculations” is defined to mean the numerical addition, subtraction, or multiplication of numbers, and related automatic features that select numbers from tax tables. Calculations do not include any instance where a taxpayer can make a decision to substitute a number for the one automatically computed by the program, and Members are not responsible for changes in tax law made by the Congress during the tax season. All Members will pay any IRS penalties and/or interest resulting from an error in the Member’s Software Program’s Calculations, notwithstanding the lack of revenue from FFI Filers. The amount of this guarantee shall be limited to the amount accrued when the IRS provides notice to the taxpayer of an improper calculation.
