Answer:

$2,040

Explanation:

Given that,

AGI = $50,000

State income tax withholding = $1,300

State income tax estimated payments = 740

Federal income tax withholding = 3,100

Social Security tax withheld from wages = 1,940

State excise tax on liquor = 420

Automobile license = 310

State sales tax paid = 480

Automobile license is not deductible since it is based on the weight and not on the value.

Therefore,

Deductible taxes:

= State income tax withholding + State income tax estimated payments

= $1,300 + $740

= $2,040
