Option (b) $57,000

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Net income = $300,000

W-2 wages = $120,000

Assets with unadjusted basis = $75,000

Taxable income before the QBI deduction = $285,000

Now,

The QBI deduction for 2019 will be given as 20% of the qualified income i. e the taxable income before the QBI deduction

Therefore,

The QBI deduction for 2019 = 20% of $285,000

= 0.20 * $285,000

= $57,000

Hence,

Option (b) $57,000
