Answer:

$47,791

Explanation:

Gross taxable income can be calculated using the formula;

Gross taxable income = Gross income - (deductions+total exemption)

Given adjusted gross income = $78,236

Deductions = $18,245

Each personal exemption = $3,050

The family total exemption = 4×$3,050 = $12,200(being a family of 4)

Substituting this values in the formula;

Gross taxable income = $78,236 - ($18,245+$12,200)

= $78,236-$30,445

= $47,791

The family gross taxable income is $47,791
