What is Santiago's AGI for the current year? Multiple Choice $177,500 $171,500 $225,750 $159,300

1 answer

To calculate Santiago's AGI for the current year, we need to sum up his earnings from his practice and the net income/loss from his passive activities.

Earnings from Santiago's practice: $177,500

Net income/loss from passive activities:
- Partnership A: $50,000 (income)
- Partnership B: -$10,000 (loss)
- Partnership C: -$6,000 (loss)

Total net income/loss from passive activities: $50,000 - $10,000 - $6,000 = $34,000

Therefore, Santiago's AGI for the current year is: $177,500 + $34,000 = $211,500

However, none of the provided answer choices match the calculated AGI. Therefore, none of the multiple-choice options is correct.
