Note: Since joint income is more than 43000 so 20% of qualified amount will be allowed.
Answer A:
Since both children aged fewer than 13 so 20% of child care expenses will be allowed.
Child care expenses = $400 per week * 48 weeks = $ 19,200 but maximum upto $ 6000 only
So Child care expenses would be 6000*20% = $1200
Answer B:
Since one child aged more than 13 so proportionate amount of 19,200 will be disqualified i.e. 6400 so child care expenses will be 12800 but due to limit it will be restricted to 6000
So Child care expenses would be 6000*20% = $1200
