Question: Rhoda owns an electronics store that is burglarized during the current year. The burglars destroy the point-of-sale terminal and steal $380 from the cash drawer.

Rhoda owns an electronics store that is burglarized during the current year. The burglars destroy the point-of-sale terminal and steal $380 from the cash drawer. The point-of-sale terminal was purchased for $7,500, and its adjusted basis is $3,700. The insurance adjuster estimates that the fair market value of a similar point-of-sale terminal is $6,000. The burglars also steal stereo equipment costing $4,200 that has a retail value of $7,000. In breaking into the store, the burglars break a large glass door that costs Rhoda $540 to replace. What is Rhoda’s deductible loss if the insurance company reimburses her $5,000?
