| Exemption | |
 A deduction allowed by law to reduce the amount of income that would otherwise be taxed. An exemption is based on a status or circumstance rather than economic standing. |

 There are two types of exemptions: personal and dependency. An example of an exemption is the reduction in taxes you are granted for the dependent children (under the age of 18) living with you. |
