In 2019, Laureen is currently single. She paid $2,800 of qualified tuition and related expenses for each of her twin daughters Sheri and Meri to attend State University as freshmen ($2,800 each for a total of $5,600). Sheri and Meri qualify as Laureen’s dependents. Laureen also paid $1,900 for her son Ryan’s (also Laureen’s dependent) tuition and related expenses to attend his junior year at State University. Finally, Laureen paid $1,200 for herself to attend seminars at a community college to help her improve her job skills.

Laureen lifetime learning credit - Eligible is 2000 (The amount of the credit is 20 percent of the first $10,000 of qualified education expenses or a maximum of $2,000 per return)

so in above case it is - 1200*20% =240 (Since AGI is below clip of 56000 he can claim same)

=6300+240 = 6540 is eligible deduction

b)

Since AGI is 95000

AOTC can't be calimed if AGI is above 90000 and hence AOTC is zero and Lifetime learning credit can't be claimed if AGI is above 56000.. Hence it is zero education credit

c)

For Daughter it is same as a above i.e. 4,400

For Ryan it is = 2000+(10000*25%) or maximum 4000

=2000+2500 or 4000

so 4000 is allowed

so AOTC total of 8400 and LLC of 240 so claimed is 8640
