A) $0.
B) $1,526 net loss.
C) $7,632 net loss.
D) $10,000 net income.

The IRS method for allocation of expenses involves dividing the expenses between rental use and personal use based on the number of days used for each. The total days the cabin was used is 45 (rental) + 12 (personal) = 57 days. The percentage of expenses allocated to rental use is 45/57. The total expenses are $7,000 (mortgage interest) + $3,000 (property taxes) + $1,200 (utilities) + $400 (maintenance) + $3,000 (depreciation) = $14,600. The allocated rental expenses are $14,600 * (45/57) = $11,526 (rounded to the nearest whole number). The rental income is $10,000, so the net loss from the cabin is $11,526 - $10,000 = $1,526.
