Answer and Explanation:
The actual gain or loss from the investment, including any suspended losses, should be determined when the tax payer disposes of his or her interest in a passive activity. According to the passive activity law, any gain realized on passive activity transition is viewed as passive and is initially compensated by suspended passive active losses from that activity.
If latest and suspended losses of passive activity exceed the gain accomplished, any loss from the activity for the tax year exceeding the net gain for the tax year from all passive activities shall be allowed to treat as a loss not arising from passive activity.
The computation of total gain and current deductible is shown below:-
Total gain = Net sales price - Adjusted basis amount
= $330,000 - 305,000
= $25,000
And Current deductible amount is
= Total gain earned - Suspended losses suffered
= $25,000 - $28,000
= $3,000
This amount represents the non passive amount
b. Deductible loss that may offset profit from passive investment that is realized in passive activity on the selling of partnership interest. The benefit realized in passive activity on selling of interest is regarded as passive.
