Madison's gross tax liability is $9,000 but she has $3,000 of tax credits available which reduces her tax liability to $6,000 ($9,000 - $3,000). She also had $8,000 of taxes withheld by her employer which means she has actually overpaid her taxes by $2,000 ($8,000 - $6,000). Therefore, Madison is entitled to a tax refund of $2,000.
