Answer:

$5,000

Explanation:

Even though Archie's state income and real estate property taxes are much higher, $9,507 + $5,040 = $14,547, his deductions are capped to only $5,000 per year (he is single) or $10,000 if he was married filing jointly.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act limited the amount that you can deduct from state taxes. Before 2018 the deductions were not limited to a certain amount.
