[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]
Shauna Coleman is single. She is employed asan architectural designer for Streamline Design (SD). Shauna wanted to determine her taxable income for this year. She correctly calculated her AGI. However, she wasn't sure how to compute the rest of her taxable income. She provided the following information with hopes that you could use itto determine her taxable income for 2024.
Shauna paid $4,680 for medical expenses for care from a broken ankle in October. Also, Shauna's boyfriend, Blake, drove Shauna (in her car) a total of115 miles to the doctor's office so she could receive care for her broken ankle.
Shauna paid a total of $3,400in health insurance premiums during the year (not through an exchange).SD did not reimburse any of this expense. Besides the health insurance premiums and the medical expenses for her broken ankle, Shauna had Lasik eye surgery last year and paid $3,000 for the surgery (she received no insurance reimbursement). She also incurred $450of other medical expenses for the year.
SD withheld $1,800of state income tax, $7,495of Social Security tax, and $14,500of federal income tax from Shauna's paychecks throughout the year.
In2024, Shauna was due a refund of $250 for overpaying her 2023 state taxes. On her 2023 state tax return that she filed in April 2024, she applied the overpayment toward her 2024 state tax liability. She estimated that her state tax liability for 2024 will be $2,300.
Shauna paid $3,200of property taxes on her personal residence. She also paid $500to the developer of her subdivision because he had to replace the sidewalk in certain areas of the subdivision.
Shauna paid a $200 property tax based on the state's estimate of the value of her car.
Shauna has a home mortgage loan in the amount of $220,000 that she secured when she purchased her home. The home is worth about $400,000. Shauna paid interest of $12,300on the loan this year.
Shauna made several charitable contributions throughout the year. She contributed stock inZYX Corporation to the Red Cross. On the date of the contribution, the fair market value of the donated shares was $1,000 and her basis in the shares was $400. Shauna originally bought the ZYX Corporation stock in2009. Shauna also contributed $300 cash to State University and religious artifacts she has held for several years to her church. The artifacts were valued at $500 and Shauna's basis in the items was $300. Shauna had every reason to believe the church would keep them on display indefinitely. Shauna also drove 200 miles doing church-related errands for her minister. Finally, Shauna contributed $1,200of services to her church last year.
Shauna paid $250in investment advisory fees and another $150to have her tax return prepared (thatis, she paid $150in2024to have her 2023 tax return prepared).
Shauna is involved in horse racing as a hobby. During the year, she won $2,500in prize money and incurred $10,000in expenses. She has never had a profitable year with her horse-racing activities, so she acknowledges that this is a hobby for federal income tax purposes.
Shauna sustained $2,000in gambling losses over the year (mostly horse-racing bets) and had only $200in winnings.
a. Assume Shauna's AGI is $107,000. Determine Shauna's taxable income.
Note: Round your intermediate calculations to the nearest whole dollar amount.
