Answer:

C) I, II, III

Explanation:

When you are calculating alternative minimum tax many of the basic deductions allowed when calculating regular income are not permitted. When you are calculating alternative minimum tax there are no personal exemptions, no deductions for state and local taxes, no standard deductions and no deductions for miscellaneous items.

Medical expenses are deductible when calculating alternative minimum tax, but only if they exceed 10% of adjusted gross income (AGI).
