Curly donated inventory (ordinary income property) to a university. He purchased the inventory seven months ago for $10,000, and on the date of the gift, it had a fair market value of $2,000. What is his maximum charitable contribution deduction for this donation if his AGI is $80,000?

    The answer is: $2,000

    Explanation:

    The IRS allows charitable deductions for ordinary income property to a maximum of 50% of adjusted gross income (AGI). The goods donated should be recorded at the lesser value between basis cost or fair market value. In this case Curly can deduct up to $40,000 per year, if he donates something that is worth that amount.
