On an individual’s federal income tax return, taxable income is adjusted gross income (the sum of wages, salaries, dividends, interest, capital gains, business income, etc., less allowable adjustments that, in part, [ include individual retirement account contributions, alimony payments, unreimbursed business expenses and capital losses up to $3,000) less itemized or standard deductions and the total of personal exemptions.
