Answer:

Option D - $0

Step-by-step explanation:

A part-time house cleaner made last year = $9258.13

He claimed himself as an exemption = $3650.00

Standard deduction = $5700.00

Taxable income = gross pay - Standard deduction - Total exemptions

= 9258.13 - 3650 - 5700 = $-91.87

There is a negative number, that means he has no tax liability.

So the answer would be Option D. $0

9258.13 - 3650 - 5700 = $ -91.87
A negative numbers mean the deduction and exemption sheltered all of his income, so he has $0 taxable income, choice D.
