Accounting

Your client, Mr. and Mrs. Jones, have asked you about being able to deduct investment interest during
2023. They took out a loan to purchase a commercial lot that they will hold for investment and plan on
selling in a few years. The interest paid on the loan in 2023 is $5,000. They have heard that the new tax
law has changed some of the rules about itemized deductions, but they dont know the details. They
have never deducted investment interest before and dont know if there is some kind of limit on what
they can deduct. Also they want to know if they will lose the deduction if they cant deduct the interest
this year. They plan on having about $28,000 in itemized deductions NOT counting the $5,000 interest
deduction. They will have $2500 in investment income this year.
