Answer #1

A.

4050 is personal exemption allowed per dependent qualifying child and when they file joint return they can claim 4050 per perosn additionally.

Beginning of phase out = 313800

Total exemption = 4050*6 = 24300

B.

4050 is personal exemption allowed per dependent qualifying child and when they file joint return they can claim 4050 per perosn additionally.

Beginning of phase out = 313800

Phase Out % = (375000-313800)/2500*2% = 50%Approx

Total Exemption = 24300 - 25*2%*24300 = 12150

C.

Maximum Phaseout Limit = 436300

So, no deduction allowed.
