Answer 1

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Mandy's deductions and credits allowed and the suspended losses and credits are calculated as follows:

Mandy's deduction (her utilized loss) total = $12000 + $18000 - $10000 = $20000

Her suspended loss = $0

After deducting the loss, Mandy has available a deduction equivalent of = $5000

Hee utilized credit is ($5000 × 22%) = $1100 and her suspended credit is ($2100 - $1100) = $1000.
