Amanda works as an industrial designer. Her Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) is $60,000. Due to an emergency, she had to spend $6,500 on medical expenses. Is she eligible for a tax deduction, and if so, how much?

Answer :

Answer:

Yes,

Explanation:

Yes, Amanda is eligible for a tax deduction. Because of her medical expense. Her medical expense is $6,500 and it exceeds 7.5% of her adjusted gross income which is $60,000.

7.5% of $60,000 = 7.5/100 * 60000

7.5% of $60,000 = $4,500.

If 7.5% is $4,500, and her medical expenses is $6,500, then she's eligible for a tax deduction
