Answer: See Explanation

Explanation:

a. Calculate Julie's taxable income or loss

This will be calculated as:

Wages - Business loss - Standard deduction

= $30000 - $400000 - $12000

= -$22000

There's a taxable loss of $22000

b. Calculate the business and nonbusiness portions of her taxable income or loss

The business loss will be the difference between the wages and the net loss which will be:

= $30000 - $40000

= -$10000

The non business loss is $12000 which is the standard deduction.

c. Determine Julie's 2018 NOL

The net business loss is $10000
