    a. Given that

    Basis before loss allocation $30,000

    Loss allocation is $40,000

    Thus, $10000 (40000 - 30000) is limited by tax basis and will be carried over to the following year.

    b. Amount not at risk does not include non recourse financing that limits the losses of taxpayers. Thus, of the $30000 not already limited by Alfonso tax basis, $24000 is at risk amount only (30000 - 6000 nonrecourse debt). Therefore, amount remaining after tax basis and at risk limitations is $24,000 and then $6000 at risk carryover.

    c. $23,000 passive activity loss carryover as a result of $1000 passive income from other sources deducted from the $24000 loss remaining after tax basis and at risk limitations (24000 - 1000).
