Answer:

correct option is c. $1,364

Explanation:

given data

purchases house = $174,000

cost of the home = $100,000

cost of the land = $74,000

solution

we know that here MACRS  depreciation deduction is here on the $100000

because home only residential real property

and land is not depreciated assets

so here depreciation rate is 1.364 %

so that maximum depreciation deduction allowed is = $100,000 × 1.364

maximum depreciation deduction allowed = 1364

so correct option is c. $1,364
