Eddie Dickerson · Answer 1

Evan's AGI is $ 66,000 and his taxable income is $ 54,000

Explanation:

To calculate the AGI you have to perform the following:

Salary $ 67,300

work hourly pay $ 700

Gross pay $68,000

Modified AGI $ 68,000

Student loan interest deduction (2500) - ((68000-65000) * (2500/15000)) = $-2000

AGI $66,000

Next, to calculate the taxable income you have the follwong substraction

AGI $ 66,000

Standard deduction $12,000

Personal deduction 0

Taxable Income $ 54,000
