Answer 1

Property 1 Class 3 building

Capital Cost - $850,000

UCC begining -$627,000

Rent generated - $81,000

Incurred property tax -$10,500

Interest Charges - $13,000

Other exp (Excluding CCA) - 17,500

Mr Gold gross rental income was $81,000

Rental Expenses (10,500 + 13,000 +17,500) - $41,000

Therefore, his net rental income before deducting CCA is $40,000 (81,000 - 41, 000)
