Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

A. $70,000

Explanation:

From the information given, we discover that

Gross profit from sporting goods business = $100,000

Subtract: other Expenses = 11500

Subtract: Building depreciation expenses (10000 × 55%) = 5500

Subtract: Mortgage Interest (10000 × 55%) = 5500

Subtract: Depreciation on vehicle used for business = 3000

Less: Utilities for Ground Floor = 4500

Net Self employment Income = $70,000

Note that 55% is used for ground floor, it is calculated as 100 - 45% used by tenant, therefore, for business purpose 55% will be taken.
