Answer:

-$7,000

Explanation:

Net loss reported by Jamaal this year from the S corporation:

= Ordinary income - suspended loss from the S corporation

= (40 percent of the S corporation × Ordinary income) - suspended loss from the S corporation

= (40% × $10,000) - $11,000

= $4,000 - $11,000

= -$7,000

Jamaal may deduct the $11000 loss carryover against his debt basis,

which was increased by his $14,000 contribution,

and his $4,000 share of S corporation income.
