FAQ
Determining the value of donated property de- pends upon many factors. You should consider all the facts and circumstances connected with the property, including any recent transactions, in determining value. Value may also be based on desirability, use, condition, scarcity, and mar- ket demand for that property.
Donated Assets—Land, buildings, equipment and library holdings received as a gift will be capitalized at the fair market or appraised value at the time of the gift.
If you give property to a qualified organization, you can generally deduct the fair market value (FMV) of the property at the time of the contribution.
Real estate dealers are entitled to the much the same deductions as any other business owner. They can deduct all the expenses of owning the vacant land they buy and sell, including interest, taxes, and other carrying costs. If you are a sole proprietor, these are deducted on IRS Schedule C.
The amount you can deduct for charitable contributions is generally limited to no more than 60% of your Minnesota adjusted gross income. Your deduction may be further limited to 50, 30, or 20% of your Minnesota AGI, depending on the type of property you give and the type of organiza- tion you give it to.
Individuals may deduct qualified contributions of up to 100 percent of their adjusted gross income. A corporation may deduct qualified contributions of up to 25 percent of its taxable income. Contributions that exceed that amount can carry over to the next tax year.
Income tax strategies—Donations to 501(c)(3) public charities qualify for an itemized deduction from income. Because the tax rate is then applied to a reduced income, this can minimize your overall tax liability.
You can claim a deduction of up to 60% of your Adjusted Gross Income. If you donated household items in less than good used condition, if the total estimated value is more than $500, you may still take the deduction. However, you should include a qualified appraisal on your return.
