    No answer is correct.

    If we use the values set by the IRS for 2019, the total travel costs deduction = $290.58.

    If we use the 2018 value, the total travel costs deduction = $273.05

    Explanation:

    The new mileage reduction set by the IRS for 2019 is 58 cents (up from 54.5 cents) per mile. Since Jermaine had to travel 3 times during the year and drove for 167 miles, his total deduction should be:

    total travel costs deduction = 3 x 167 x $0.58 = $290.58

    If we use the 2018 deduction rates, Jermaine's total travel deduction will be:

    total travel costs deduction = 3 x 167 x $0.545 = $273.05
