Answer 1

Answer:

$1,050

Explanation:

Given that,

Airfare = $560

Taxis = $40

Meals = $100

Lodging = $350

All the expenses incurred during a business trip to New York are deductible.

Therefore, the amount of expenses deducted is calculated as follows:

= Airfare + Taxis + Meals + Lodging

= $560 + $40 + $100 + $350

= $1,050

Hence, Barry may deduct $1,050 as travel expenses for the trip.
