Without a Critical Thinking Assignment this week, this is your opportunity (and a requirement!) to work on your Portfolio Project. Obtain the supporting information from the option you have chosen to complete for your Portfolio Project. You will also use the Schedule E template included under that same option.

Show all calculations within the cells of the template. This means that you must use formulas and links so that your thought process can be examined. Make good use of comments to convey your thought process as well. No hard coding of solutions is allowed. In addition, complete the depreciation schedule showing the list of assets for the rental properties as well as the depreciation rates and amounts. Submit a single MS Excel file for grading.
