Answer:

$9,000

Explanation:

Vernon can only deduct the actual lease expenses incurred during 2016, and that is only three months: October, November and December.

= 3 months x $3,000 per month = $9,000

This logic applies to every expense that is paid in advance, you can only deduct payments that apply for the current tax year.
