The qualified retirement savings contributions credit is a tax credit that is available to individuals who make contributions to a qualified retirement plan, such as a Roth IRA. The credit is equal to 10% of the amount of the contribution, up to a maximum of $1,000. In this case, Kerry contributed $5,000 to his Roth IRA, so he is entitled to a credit of $500.
