    As given, Income of Homer and his wife = $60000

    Interest earned = $1200.

    Adding this to total income, we have total taxable amount = 60000+1200 = $61200

    Now, investment in tax deferred savings plan = $ 2500

    This amount will be subtracted from total taxable income, so amount becomes = 61200-2500 = $58700

    We will also subtract the exemptions and deductions = $12000

    Amount becomes = 58700-12000 = $46700

    Hence, Net taxable income is $46,700
