Expert Solution

solution :
The deduction for a contribution of capital gain property is based on its fair market value,while the deduction for a contribution of ordinary income property is equal to the lesser of theadjusted basis or the fair market value

The stock is treated as (capital gain or ordinary income) property and Donna's charitable contribution deduction is $ ______tax purposes.

Because Donna did not hold the stock for the long-term holding period (December 28, 2015,until September 10, 2016 is not “more than one year”), it is short-term capital gain propertythat is subject to the rules for ordinary income property. Therefore, her deduction is limited to$24325.

The deduction for a contribution of loss property (FMV is less than adjusted basis) is limited to the fair market value on the contribution date. Therefore, Donna’s deduction is $20850.
