Answer:

  • Loss deducted : $6,700
  • Loss suspended: $1,700

Explanation:

First find his initial basis:

= Cash + Real property - Nonrecourse mortgage + (Nonrecourse mortgage * 50%)

= 3,800 + 4,800 - 3,800 + (3,800 * 50%)

= $6,700

Loss attributable to Gerald:

= 16,800 * 50%

= $‭8,400

Loss deductible is the initial basis if the loss is more than the basis.

Loss suspended = Loss attributable to Gerald - Initial basis

= 8,400 - 6,700

= $1,700
