Question:
Melanie’s mother is changing jobs and offered to sell an office building and used office furniture to Melanie, who is a psychologist. Melanie bought the two items of her mother’s on March 25, 2019 for $ 56,700 (office furniture) and $ 917,000 (office building). Both were rented out to a lessee the next day. The rental income is sufficient to generate positive taxable income. Melanie also bought another item, used, from her mom to place into service in the same office building, a computer, and this was bought for $ 27,400 (and placed into service the same day) on 10-25-2019. Melanie did not need to buy any other equipment nor did she place into service any other real or personal property during 2019.
