While checking the computations on his Form 1040, Mr. G realized he had misclassified a $10,800 expense

Question:

While checking the computations on his Form 1040, Mr. G realized he had misclassified a $10,800 expense as a business deduction on Schedule C. The expense should have been an itemized deduction on Schedule A. Mr. G didn’t correct the error be-cause he assumed the correction wouldn’t affect taxable income. Is this assumption correct?
