    a. Her AMTI is $90,000

    Because her AMTI does not excéed threshold of $160,900 her AMT exemption is not phased out and she is entitled to the full exemption amount of $84,500

    b Her AMTI is $180,000

    Because her AMTI exceed the threshold of $160,900, she must phase out her exemption and is entitled to:

    84,500 - { (180,000 - 160,900) * 25% } = $ 79,725 (entitlement)

    c. Her AMTI is $500,000

    She is not allowed to deduct any exemption amount as it is entirely phased out as shown below

    $84,500 - { (500,000-160,900) * 25%} = - 275. Less than zero
