Demarco and Janine Jackson have been married for 20 years and have four children who qualify as their dependents
(Damarcus, Jasmine, Michael, and Candice). The Jacksons file a joint tax return. The couple received salary income of
$99,500 and qualified business income of $15,500 from an investment in a partnership, and they sold their home this
year. They initially purchased the home three years ago for $227,500 and they sold it for $277,500. The gain on the sale
qualified for the exclusion from the sale of a principal residence. The Jacksons incurred $17,600 of itemized deductions,
and they had $4.000 withheld from their paychecks for federal taxes. They are also allowed to claim a child tax credit for
each of their children. However, because Candice was 18 years of age at year end, the Jacksons may claim a child tax
credit for other qualifying dependents for Candice. (Use the tax rate schedules.)
