Answer 1

Answer:

$ 50 867

Step-by-step explanation:

Data:

Let the monies be:

income = $ 59 860

student loan deductions =  - $ 1 933.07

Donations = -$ 3 702

Paid mortgage interest = -$ 2 959.20

budget for self = - $ 11 400

exemption = $ 7 300

The total taxable income = $( 59 860 - 1 933.07 - 2 959.20 - 11 400 + 7 300)

                                          = $ 50 867
