Answer:

D) Miscellaneous expenses less than 2% of AGI

Step-by-step explanation:

Employees are subject to the 2% rule. That means that any itemized deduction they want to make must exceed 2% of their adjusted gross income (AGI). Only self employed (independent contractors) are allowed to deduct expenses that are lower than 2% of their AGI.
