Explanation / Answer

Income = $75,000

Moving truck rental =  1,000

Packing and unloading costs paid to moving company = 1,000    

Loss on sale of Minneapolis home = 1,500

Lodging =   750

Meals =   25

Storage costs in Phoenix prior to move-in to new home =  100

Gross income = 75000 - 1000 - 1000 - 1500- 750 - 25 -100 = 70625
