Shaniya Pacheco · Answer 1

b. False

Explanation:

Selling price of Painting = $30,000

Purchase price of Painting = $10,000

Contribution of Painting = Value of Painting - Purchase price of painting

Contribution of Painting = $30,000 - $10,000 = $20,000

Oriole's charitable contribution deduction is $20,000

So, the statement is false as the contribution is $20,000 rather $30,000.
