Sample Financial Statement:

Questions Set 1

问题 1A：

Using a sample financial statement, track the income and expenses of a rental property over one year. Calculate the property’s net income and cash flow.

解决方案:

Step 1: Calculate Annual Income

• Annual Rental Income: $2,500 * 12 = $30,000

Step 2: Calculate Annual Expenses

• Mortgage Payment: $1,200 * 12 = $14,400
• Property Taxes: $200 * 12 = $2,400
• Insurance: $100 * 12 = $1,200
• Maintenance: $150 * 12 = $1,800
• Property Management Fee: $250 * 12 = $3,000
• Utilities: $150 * 12 = $1,800
• Total Annual Expenses: $14,400 + $2,400 + $1,200 + $1,800 + $3,000 + $1,800 = $24,600

Step 3: Calculate Net Income

• Net Income: Annual Rental Income – Total Annual Expenses
  • Calculation: $30,000 – $24,600 = $5,400

\(\textbf{Calculation:}\)

\[ \$30,000 – \$24,600 = \$5,400 \]

\（\textbf{图例：}\）

\(\$30,000\) = Annual rental income

\(\$24,600\) = Total annual expenses

\(\$5,400\) = Net income per year

Step 4: Calculate Cash Flow

• 现金周转: Since there are no additional cash expenses or adjustments, the cash flow is the same as the net income.
  • Calculation: $5,400

概括：

• Net Income: $5,400 per year
• Cash Flow: $5,400 per year

提示和最佳实践:

• Track All Income and Expenses: Ensure all income and expenses are accurately tracked for precise financial management.
• 定期复习： Regularly review financial statements to monitor property performance.

问题 1B：

Analyze the provided tax scenarios to identify potential deductions and strategies for minimizing your tax liability.

解决方案:

步骤 1: Depreciation Deduction

• Building Value: $250,000
• Depreciation Period: 27.5 years
• Annual Depreciation Deduction: Building Value / Depreciation Period
  • Calculation: $250,000 / 27.5 = $9,090.91

\(\textbf{Calculation:}\)

\[ \frac{\$250,000}{27.5} = \$9,090.91 \]

\（\textbf{图例：}\）

\(\$250,000\) = Building value

\(27.5\) = Depreciation period (years)

\(\$9,090.91\) = Annual depreciation deduction

第 2 步: Interest Deduction

• Annual Mortgage Interest: $6,000

步骤3: Other Deductions

• Property Taxes: $2,400
• Insurance: $1,200
• Maintenance: $1,800
• Property Management Fees: $3,000
• Utilities: $1,800

Step 4: Total Deductions Calculation

• Total Deductions: Depreciation + Mortgage Interest + Other Deductions
  • Calculation: $9,090.91 + $6,000 + $2,400 + $1,200 + $1,800 + $3,000 + $1,800 = $25,290.91

Step 5: Calculate Taxable Income

• Taxable Income: Net Income – Total Deductions
  • Net Income: $5,400
  • Total Deductions: $25,290.91
  • Calculation: $5,400 – $25,290.91 = -$19,890.91 (indicating a potential tax loss)

\(\textbf{Calculation:}\)

\[ \$5,400 – \$25,290.91 = -\$19,890.91 \]

\（\textbf{图例：}\）

\(\$5,400\) = Net income

\(\$25,290.91\) = Total deductions

\(-\$19,890.91\) = Taxable income (negative, indicating a loss)

Potential Tax Strategies:

• Utilize Depreciation: Maximize the use of depreciation deductions to reduce taxable income.
• Claim All Eligible Expenses: Ensure all eligible expenses, such as mortgage interest, property taxes, insurance, maintenance, and management fees, are claimed to minimize tax liability.
• Carry Forward Losses: If the property generates a tax loss, consider carrying forward the losses to offset future rental income.

概括：

• Total Deductions: $25,290.91
• Taxable Income: -$19,890.91 (potential tax loss)

提示和最佳实践:

• Consult a Tax Professional: Work with a tax professional to ensure all deductions are accurately claimed and to develop tax minimization strategies.
• Keep Detailed Records: Maintain detailed records of all expenses and income for accurate tax reporting.
