    His adjusted basis in the residence after the tornado is $85,800.

    Explanation:

    adjusted basis after tornado = adjusted basis before tornado + cost of repairing - insurance reimbursement - deductible casualty loss

    = $80,000 + $30,000 - $22,000 - $2,200

    = $85,800

    Therefore, His adjusted basis in the residence after the tornado is $85,800.
