Immediately before considering the deductibility of this loss, Jasmine’s capital account (which, in this case, corresponds to her basis excluding liabilities) reflected a balance of $50,000. Jasmine has personally guaranteed a $10,000 debt of the LLC that is allocated to her as a recourse debt. Her share of the LLC’s nonrecourse debt is $30,000.
