agasfer [191]

Answer:

a) Jenna's tax basis = $45,000 + ($13,000 - $10,000) = $48,000

loss limited by her tax basis = $65,000 - $48,000 = $17,000

b)  Jenna's at risk loss = $48,000 - $13,000 = $35,000

Annualised Rate of Occurrence (ARO): An expected frequency of the hazard occurring over the course of a year is known as the Annualised Rate of Occurrence (ARO). ALE is computed using ARO (annualized loss expectancy).

The annualised rate is applicable for a specific amount of time (less than 12 months). It is a mathematical extrapolation of an estimated yearly returns rate. In order to determine it, multiply the monthly change in returns rate by 12 to obtain the annual rate.
