four children who qualify as their dependents (Damarcus, Janine
Jr., Michael, and Candice). The couple received salary income of
$125,000 and qualified business income of $12,500 from an
investment in a partnership, and they sold their home this year.
They initially purchased the home three years ago for $212,500 and
