State income taxes paid 5,000
Home mortgage interest paid 6,000
Charitable contributions paid 3,000

a. Gross Income = Salary+ Interest Income
Gross Income = 80000+120000+150+4000
=204150
Hence Gross Income = 204150
b.Adjusted Gross Income = Gross Income -IRA deduction
= 204150-(Capital Loss+Property Tax paid)
=204150-(7220+4000)
=204150-11220
=192930
Adjusted Gross Income =192930
c.Taxable Income = Adjusted Gross income - Home mortgage interest paid-Charitable contribution paid- Federal Withholding
=192930-6000-3000-39000
=144930
Taxable Income = 144930
d. Tax Liability = as per slab
10%(19400)+12%(78950-19400)+22%(144930-78951)
=10%*19400+12%(59550)+22%(65979)
=1940+7146+14515
=23601
Tax Liability = 23601
e. Tax due = Tax liability - State Income tax paid
=23601-5000
=19601
