Based on the year that Rich died and the year that Lucy is filing her taxes, the most favorable filing status is <u>Married filing jointly. </u>
Current tax laws are such that if a person loses a spouse in a certain year and does not remarry in that year, they can file in a joint manner with their now late spouse.
Rich died in 2020 and Lucy did not remarry. Lucy's 2020 returns can therefore be filed as a joint filing with Rich even though he is no longer alive.
In conclusion, the correct answer is option A.

Explanation:
The straight line method charges a constant depreciation expense each period throughout the useful life of the asset. The depreciation expense per period under the straight line method is calculated as follows,
