Casualty And Theft Losses

Question: individual income taxes?

During the year, May had a salary of 30,000 and experienced following losses: loss from danage to rental property ($10,000), Loss from theft to rental properties (5,000), personal casualty gain 4000, Personal casualty loss (after $100 floor) (3,000). Whhat is the amount of May’s Itemized deduction from these losses?

Answer: Well, the loss from damage ($10,000) and the loss from theft ($5,000) should be reported on Schedule E rental, the personal gain ($4,000) would be other income, so only the personal casualty loss ($3,000) would be on schedule A – Itemized Deductions, and only what exceeded 2% of May’s AGI would be deductible. And her itemized deductions in total would have to exceed her standard deductions for the casualty loss to mean anything.

Disaster Losses May Be a Tax Gain

LOS ANGELES—-An often-overlooked deduction may help turn a major property-casualty loss into a tax time gain. The standard deduction for unreimbursed casualty and theft losses allows taxpayers to include certain uninsured property losses among their Itemized Deductions.
