Answer: d.$217,000.

Explanation:

Current tax laws require that 85% of Social Security Benefits be included as AGI for the year.

Debbie's Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) for the year is therefore:

= Taxable interest income + 85% of Social Security

= 200,000 + 20,000 * 85%

= 200,000 + 17,000

= $217,000
