  1. In Q4, from my understanding, 50% of exceeding 100K AGI is cut from the 25K mom and pop deduction. In this question, 7.5K is the maximum deduction to offset Active income. (25K-17.5K=7.5K) (35K*50%=17.5K). please correct me if I’am wrong..

    1. Hello DG,

      It looks like you might be using an older version of the course material. Please subscribe to the new REG Becker supplemental course for 2024 to get the most up-to-date information and ensure you’re fully prepared for the exam. This is the link:
      https://farhatlectures.com/courses/reg-becker-supplemental-course-2024/

      As for the question, it is covered under TCP and not covered under REG anymore. In all cases, your understanding is correct. The $25,000 deduction is reduced by 50% of the amount by which the MAGI exceeds $100,000, which in this case leaves a maximum deduction of $7,500:
      $25,000 − ($35,000 × 50%) = $7,500.
      We’ve updated the question to reflect the above.
      Thank you for bringing this to our attention!

  2. In Q6, her actual passive loss is 10K, and possible mom and pop deduction is 13.5K. I think the lesser should be deducted in tax return. I am a bit confused..

  3. For Q#3, should Jenny be able to deduct rental loss of $25,000 even though her actual rental loss was only $18,000? I understand as an active participant in rental activity she is allowed $25,000 loss under mom and pop exemption but only if her rental loss was greater than her actual loss, correct? Or does the mom and pop exemption allow $25,000 knowing that if her AGI is greater than $100,000 it would be reduced by 50%, which is less than her actual rental loss? What happens if her AGI was less than $100,000? Does she still get the $25,000 rental loss even though her actual rental loss was only $18,000? Please clarify. Thank you.
