Question: Warner Robins ( born July 4 , 1 9 8 8 ) and Augustine Robins ( born November 1 1 , 1 9 8 8

Warner Robins (born July 4,1988) and Augustine Robins (born November 11,1988) have been married for nine years, have no dependents, and file jointly. Warner is the president of Jaystar Corporation located in Macon, Georgia. The Jaystar stock is owned 40 percent by Warner, 40 percent by Augustine, and 20 percent by Warners father. Warner and Augustine received the following tax documents:
1) W-2 Form
2) Form 1099-INT
3) Form 1098
4) Letter from Macon Museum of Arts regarding their charitable contribution.
These items are located on separate tabs.
The Robins paid the following amounts (all can be substantiated):
General state sales tax2,203Auto loan interest4,800Medical insurance11,500Income tax preparation fee750Charitable contributions in cash:Church3,400Central Georgia Technical University5,000Safe-deposit box200
The Robins had total itemized deductions of $33,567 in 2022 which included a $9,650 state tax deduction.
The tax basis for the donated album cover art is $25,000 and has been owned by Warner and Augustine for five years.
Jaystar does not cover health insurance for its employees. In addition to Warner and Augustines health insurance premiums shown above, Augustine required surgery which cost $6,450 for which only $3,200 was covered by insurance. In September 2023, Warner had to drive Augustine 125 miles each way to a surgical center.
On January 1,2023, Warner sold land to Jaystar Corporation for $75,000. He acquired the land 5 years ago for $160,000. No Form 1099-B was filed for this transaction.
Augustine decided to become a management consultant in late 2023 and provided consulting services to her only client, Jaystar, in 2023 and billed them $7,500 on December 27,2023. Jaystar is an accrual-based corporation and accrued the consulting expense of $7,500. Jaystar paid Augustine in January 2024 and expects to issue her a 1099-NEC in 2024. This was Augustines only consulting work in 2023, and she is a cash-based business. She incurred no business-related expenses in 2023.
Jaystar Corporation does not have a qualified pension plan or Section 401(k) plan for its employees. Therefore, Warner deposited $13,000($6,500 each) into traditional IRA accounts for Augustine and himself (neither are covered by a qualified plan at work).
