    1) AGI = $112,400

    2) Taxable Income = $80,600

    Explanation:

    Ed's Salary = $35,000

    Jane's Salary = $70,000

    Municipal bond interest income = $400

    Qualified business income = $1,000

    Alimony paid (for AGI deduction) = $7,000

    Real property tax (from AGI deduction) = $10,000

    Charitable contributions (from AGI) = $15,000

    The total gross income for Jane and Ed = $70,000 + $35,000 = $105,000

    1) Their AGI (Adjusted Gross Income) = $105,000 + $400 + $7,000 = $112,400

    2) Their taxable income = $112,400 - $24400 - $7000 - $400 = $80,600
