Answer:

a. Ted paid $30 rent on a safety deposit box at the bank. In this box he kept the few shares of stock that he owned.

  • Not deductible

Is not a business expense nor it can be itemized.

b. Tyler paid $154 for minor repairs to the fence at a rental house he owned.

  • Deductible for AGI

Repairs and maintenance expenses of rental property decrease your AGI.  

c. Timmy paid $775 for health insurance premiums this year. Timmy is employed full-time and his employer paid the remaining premiums as a qualified fringe benefit.

  • Not deductible

If Timmy's medical expenses were more than 10% of your AGI, then you can deduct the difference. But I doubt Timmy earns less than $7,750.

d. Tess paid $1,880 of state income taxes on her consulting income.

  • Deductible from AGI

If you itemize deductions, you can deduct up to $10,000 in state or local taxes.
