Congress taxes prepaid rental income due to the concern that taxpayers who spend the money will be unable to pay the tax when t comes due.

- Mary purchases a property with the help of a fixed-rate loan. Why is Mary considered the mortgagor and the lender the mortgagee? Mary is not considered the mortgagor. Since she received a loan from a lender, she is considered the mortgagee. • O A mortgage is a legal document that gives the lender the right to foreclose on the property if Mary defaults on the loan. Mary gives this security to the lender, and in return, the lender gives Mary the loan. Since Mary is giving the mortgage to the lender she is considered the mortgagor. Since Mary recently obtained the loan, she is still considered the mortgagor. Once the loan is paid off, she will be considered the mortgagee. O Since Mary obtained a fixed-rate loan, she is considered the mortgagor. If she obtained any other type of loan, she would be considered the mortgagee.arrow_forwardSharp Accounting rents a floor in an office building. Their insurance advisor has suggested that they consider coverage under the Legal Liability Coverage Form. The Legal Liability Coverage Form Provides a lower premium rate than direct property insurance on the covered real property. Contains a coinsurance condition that applies to property in Sharp's custody. Contains a deductible that applies to damage caused by Sharp. Provides coverage for property of others in Sharp's custody regardless of fault.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is incorrect? Assume that the rental activity is classified as ‘production-of-income.’ If the taxpayer sells the rental property later at a loss, the loss will be treated as a capital loss (i.e., $3,000/$1,500 deduction limit in the current year). An amount that would have been paid in an arm’s-length transaction is considered a reasonable amount as deduction. Payment (except for medical or educational expense) of another person’s obligation does not result in a tax deduction for the payer. Regarding the start-up costs, if the new business is in the same line of business as the existing one and if the new business is not launched, then none of the start-up costs are deductible. Payments for a speeding ticket are nondeductible. HELParrow_forward

If (a) is not possible, James plans to take his case to a Texas state court as he is more familiar with the practices there.
