7500 credit questions

Does the 7500 credit for first time buyers that purchase a house between April 9 of 08 and July 1 of 09 have to be done using an FHA loan?

Do singles get the full 7500, or is that for married couples, making singles only eligible for 3575?

What kind of a partial credit is given if the modified adjusted gross income is 82K, being that a 75K MAGI and lower recieves the full credit of 7500? Would it be $4875?

82K-75K = 7k
7k/20k = .35
1-.35 = .65
.65*7500 = 4875

Do contributions to 401K contribute to the modified adjusted gross income?
