immy and Tammy have long attended the True Believer Church (TBC). They send their kids, ages 8 and 10, to the affiliated True Believer Academy, which broadcasts its mission statement loudly and proudly on its website: “Molding tomorrow’s True Believers, one child at a time.” Yearly tuition at the Academy is $18,000 but it also offers a “two-fer” discount, so Timmy and Tammy pay $30,000 (instead of $36,000) annually for their two kids. And they use TBC’s very convenient “Annual Combined Giving Installment Plan” by simply adding (once a month) $2,500 to one of their routine weekly “Offerings” checks to TBC. In January 2021 they received their “2020 Annual Giving Statement” from TBC showing that TBC had received a grand total of $40,000 from Timmy and Tammy during 2020. In preparing Timmy and Tammy’s 2020 Form 1040, you will input into the soft-ware a Schedule A charitable contribution deduction of ___ for their 2020 pay-ments to TBC. (a) $40,000 (b) $36,000 (c) $30,000 (d) $10,000 (e) $4,000
