    Answer and Explanation:

    The vacation home is classified as primarily personal because it was rented for fewer than 15 days during the year. As Sarah can exclude the $2,500 of rent income, the vacation home

    transactions have no effect on her AGI.

    b. The only expenses that Sarah can deduct are those she normally would deduct as itemized

    deductions. This includes the following:

    Mortgage interest $10,000 Property tax

    1,500

    Total

    $11,500

    Sarah cannot deduct any of the utilities, insurance, and maintenance expenses or the depreciation. None of the expenses are deductible for AGI.
