Salary $ 80,000

Interest on CD 2,000

Dividend 2,200

AGI $ 84,200

Standard deduction (head of household) (18,350)

Taxable income $ 65,850

The interest ($3,000) on the bonds is an exclusion (not taxable). Also excluded from gross income are the life insurance proceeds ($200,000) and the inheritance ($100,000). The loan repayment ($5,000) is a nontaxable return of capital. Aiden chose not to itemize his deductions from AGI ($9,700); the head-of-household standard deduction ($18,350) provides a larger from AGI deduction.

Taxable income = $ 65,850
