Edith                           53,970             5,825                                       1,900

Edith was in an accident in Feb. of 2019. Because of computer problems the hospital insisted on Doug giving them his credit card for services. The hospital charged 34,000 and six weeks later resolved the computer problem and issued a credit on the credit card of everything except a $350 deductible.

Doug and Edith lived in a rented apartment so there is no real estate tax or mortgage involved.

Their total charity for 2019 was $250.

They paid a baby-sitter $500 per week ($24,000 for 2019) to watch Helen all day and Frank and Gary when they get home from school. The baby-sitter does laundry and household chores while Helen sleeps.

Compute tax, married filing joint and amount due to IRS or to be refunded by IRS when they file their 2019 tax return.
