Answer:

The answer is a: $23,160

Explanation:

Total itemized deductions = Home mortgage interest + real estate taxes + cash gifts

Total itemized deductions = $12,920 + $5,100 +$7,000

Total itemized deductions =$25,020

Threshold limit for married filing jointly = $313,800

Martins can reduce their itemized deductions by 3% of ($375,800 - $313,800) = $1,860

The amount, Martins will deduct from AGI for their itemized deductions is $25,020 - $1,860 = $23,160.
