Answer:

the deductible expense is $4,800

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the deductible expense is given below:

= Airfare + lodging + 50% of meals

= $3,200 + $1,100 + 50% of $1,000

= $3,200 + $1,100 + $500

= $4,800

Hence, the deductible expense is $4,800

This is an answer but the same is not provided in the given options

so the same is relevant and considered too
