Jack and Diane decided to remodel their kitchen. They removed their old cabinets and replaced them with newer, nicer cabinets. They installed the old cabinets in a rental home that they own and lease to other people. The original cost of the old cabinets was $6,000. The fair market value on the date they were installed in the rental house was $2,500. The cost of the new cabinets was $11,000. What amount should Jack and Diane use as the basis for depreciation for the cabinets that have been installed in the rental property?

Answer:

The answer is: $2,500

Explanation:

According to the IRS, the cost basis for any asset should be the original cost adjusted by its depreciation.

Since Jack and Diane aren't able to determine the depreciation expenses for the cabinets, they should use their fair market value as cost basis.
