In both the above situations, the taxpayer loses money:

• When you go for standard deduction and you don’t know that your itemized deduction is more you tend to claim lower deductions. This increases your taxable income and eventually increases your tax amount.
• In the second situation, when you choose itemized deductions and are unaware that your standard deduction is amount is more. Similar to the above, your taxable income increases and so does your tax amount.

The standard deduction is a fixed amount to be claimed with no questions asked. Whereas in itemized deduction filer needs to present relevant documents as and when demanded by IRS.
