Question

Reggie is divorced and 45 years old. In 2019, he had AGI of $55,000. During the year, he incurred and paid the following medical costs:

Doctor and dentist fees	$	1,950
Prescription medicines		275
Medical care insurance premiums		340
Health club fee		600
Crutches for a sprained ankle		50

What is Reggie's medical expense deduction (after application of the adjusted gross income limitation) for his 2019 tax return?

Multiple Choice

• $0.

• $2,615.

• $4,125.

Answer 1

Answer-:

$0

Explanation

7.5% of $55,000 = $4,125

$1,950 + 275 + 340 + 50 = $2,615

$2,615 < $4,125 so $0 is deductible.

According to Schedule A (Form 1040 or 1040-SR) you are allowed to deduct medical and dental care expenses you paid for yourself, your spouse, and your dependent for that year but not less than 7.5% of your Adjusted gross income.

There is nothing to do whether Reggie is divorced or not.

I hope the question was answered right way.
