Assuming:  $53K SS, $60K other income (not salary because you retired.)

of which 85% of SS is taxable.  so total income = $53K * 85% + 60K = 105050.

Minus standard deduction $25K. taxable is $80K. 

80K taxable income takes you to 12% bracket.  https://www.bankrate.com/taxes/tax-brackets/

Your tax should be around $9202= $19900x10% + (80K-19.9K)x12%

Effective federal income tax rate is 8.1%.    $8860/$113K. 

It looks like you have no understanding on how 1040 form works.
