Answer:

$10,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Josie, an unmarried taxpayer, has $155,000 in salary, $10,000 in income from a limited partnership, and a $26,000 passive activity loss from a real estate rental activity in which she actively participates. If her modified adjusted gross income is $155,000, how much of the $26,000 loss is deductible

The loss of $10,000 is deducted against the passive activity income from Josie limited partnership interest.

However,none of the remaining $16,000 rental loss is deducted against Josie's salary, even though Josie actively participates in the activity. The special $25,000 offset for real estate rental activities is reduced to $0

Which will be calculated as [$25,000 – 50%($155,000 – $100,000)]. Therefore, of the remaining $16,000 loss, none can be deducted in the current year
