Answer:
$448.25
Explanation:
For her medical expenses, it has to be more than 7.5% of her gross income of $32,500 => 7.5% of $32,500 = $2437.5.
so her deduction for medical expenses is $19,500 - $2437.50 = $17,062.5
so her total itemized deduction is $6,320.00 + $17,062.50 = $23,382.50
Given Kristina will file a single so her standard deduction for 2022 is $12,950.
If she uses standard deduction, her taxable income is 32,500 - 19,500 = 13,000
For the first 10,000 taxed at 10% so it is 10,000 x 10% = $1,000
The next $3000 taxed at 12% = $360
Her total tax is $1,000 + $360 = $1,360
If she uses itemized deduction, her taxable income is 32,500 - 23,382.50 = 9117.5
For the first 10,000 taxed at 10% so it is 9117.5 x 10% = $911.75
The tax saved is $1,360 - $911.75 = $448.25
Hope this helps.
