    d.$4,150

    Explanation:

    The computation of the deduction amount claimed for the calendar year is shown below:

    = Additional amount paid in state income taxes in the year 2018 + withholding for state income tax purposes

    = $600 + $3,550

    = $4,150

    For computing the deduction amount we added the Additional amount paid in state income taxes and the withholding for state income tax purposes.

    All other information which is given is not relevant. Hence, ignored it
