Incorrect. $4,000 gross income – greater of $1,050 or ($800 earned income + $350) – $1,550 (additional standard deduction for age 65 and older) = $1,300.
Why is Henry's gross income only 4000? Why is his consulting work not included?
Henry's gross income will only be $4000 and $800 earned from consulting income is not included as greater of $1050 and earned income+350 is claimed as a deduction.
The deduction is available as Henry is claimed as a dependent on his daughter's tax return.
As per the filing requirement worksheet for dependents line 1 is to enter dependent's earned income+$350. Line 2 is the minimum amount of $1050. Line 3 compares lines 1 and 2 and the larger amount is entered.
Thus the answer will be = 4000-greater of 1050 or (800+350) - 1550
= 4000-1150-1550
= 4000-2700
= 1300
