On September 1 of the current year, Mr. Z, a cash-basis, calendar-year, self-employed mechanic, borrowed $10,000 at 10% for 5 years (i. e., 60 months) to purchase equipment with a useful life of 10 years. Z paid the lender a loan origination fee of $3,000 on the loan date. This fee was solely for the use of the money. How much of the $3,000 fee may Z deduct on his Schedule C for the current year

$200

Explanation:

Calculation for How much of the $3,000 fee may Z deduct on his Schedule C for the current year.

Amortized over life of loan = ($3,000/60 months) x 4 months

Amortized over life of loan=$50×4 months

Amortized over life of loan=$200

Note that September 1 to 31 December will give us 4 months

Therefore what Z deduct on his Schedule C for the current year is $200
