Heloise, age 74 and a widow, is claimed as a dependent by her daughter. For 2017, she had income as follows: $2,500 interest on municipal bonds; $3,200 Social Security benefits; $3,000 income from a part-time job; and $2,800 dividends on stock investments. What is Heloise's taxable income for 2017?
$900 . $3,000 (income from job) + $2,800 (dividends) – $3,350 (basic standard deduction is $3,000 + $350; this is greater than $1,050) – $1,550 (additional standard deduction for age) = $900 . The Social Security benefits of $3,200 and the interest on municipal bonds of $2,500 are not taxable.
