Answer:

Mr. Brady can embrace $4,750 as Education Benefits

Explanation:

As per the Section 127(a)(2), any taxpayer can eliminate up to $5.250 of education aids from his/her yearly revenue.

Taxable amount = Education aids - Excludable expanse

Taxable amount = $10,000 - $5,250

Taxable amount = $4,750

Therefore, Mr. Brady can embrace $4,750 from his revenue as education benefits.
