In June of 2021, Enrique and Denisse Espinosa traveled to Denver to attend a three-day conference sponsored by the American Society of Implant Dentistry. Denisse, a self-employed practicing oral surgeon, participated in scheduled technical sessions dealing with the latest developments in surgical procedures. On two days, Enrique attended group meetings where various aspects of family tax planning were discussed. On the other day, he went sightseeing. Enrique does not work for his wife, but he prepares their tax returns and manages the family investments. Expenses incurred in connection with the conference are summarized as follows.

How much, if any, of these expenses can the Espinosas deduct?
