Brody Casey · Answer 1

Maximum business interest deduction that George will be eligible to claim this year will be $525,300

Explanation:

Maximum business interest deduction is 30% of Adjusted Taxable income (ATI)

Adjusted Taxable income (ATI) = 1260000+240500+250500 = $1,751,000

Maximum business interest deduction = 1751000*30% = $525300

Fernando Mcdonald · Answer 2

The Maximum business interest deduction to be claim by George this year is $525,300

Explanation:

The maximum business interest deduction will be 30 percent of Adjustable Tax income.

Adjustable Tax income = Taxable Income + Business Interest + Depreciation

Adjustable Tax income = $1,260,000 + $240,500 + $250,500

Adjustable Tax income = $1,751,000

Maximum business interest deduction = 30% * Adjustable Tax income

Maximum business interest deduction = 30% * $1,751,000

Maximum business interest deduction = $525,300
