Clem is married and is a skilled carpenter. Clem's wife, Wanda, works part time as a substitute grade school teacher. Determine the amount of Clem's expenses that are deductible for AGI this year (if any) under the following independent circumstances: (Leave no answer blank. Enter zero if applicable.)

 

Problem 6-26 Part-a (Algo)

a. Clem is self-employed, and this year he incurred $1,000 in expenses for tools and supplies related to his job. Because neither was covered by a qualified health plan, Wanda paid health insurance premiums of $5,140 to provide coverage for herself and Clem (not through an exchange).                                                                                                                                                           b. Clem and Wanda own a garage downtown that they rent to a local business for storage. This year they incurred expenses of $1,650 in utilities and $1,040 in depreciation.                          c. Clem paid self-employment tax of $22,200 (the employer portion is $11,100), and Wanda had $6,450 of Social Security taxes withheld from her pay.                                                                      d. Clem paid $79 to rent a safety deposit box to store his coin collection. Clem has collected coins intermittently since he was a boy, and he expects to sell his collection when he retires.
