Answer:

A) $7,000

Explanation:

Smith can deduct the $5,000 he donated to the church he attends. The art work donated to the local museum must be deducted at its basis, which is $2,000. Since he only purchased the painting 4 months before, the price increase will be considered a short term capital gain. Donated short term capital gain property must be deducted at basis.

The $1,000 he donated to the needy family is not deductible, since it wasn't a qualifying organization.
