Ben is employed as a carpenter and his wife, Marilyn, is a self-employed consultant. Besides Ben’s salary, Ben and Marilyn own a
condominium that they rent to tourists and do not use personally. This year they paid $2,200 for utilities in the condo. Marilyn also paid self-employment tax of $4,200 and Ben had $3,000 of Social Security taxes withheld from his pay. Which of the following is a true statement?A. one-half of Ben's Social Security tax is deductible for AGI B. The cost of utilities is deductible for AGI
C. Marilyn's self-employment tax is not deductible
D. Only the $2,200 utility bill is deductible for AGI
E. None of the above is true
The entire cost of the utilities would be for AGI deduction assuming no personal use of the condo. The employer portion of Marilyn's self-employment tax would be deductible as well.
