Assessing your Adjusted Gross Income
"AGI" is gross income from taxable sources minus allowable adjustments. AGI is used to determine taxable income by deducting personal exemptions and the standard deduction or itemized deductions. AGI is important to know as it is the basis for various calculations including determining the limitations on your itemized deductions such as medical expenses and miscellaneous deductions.
