Carl’s business insurance costs $3,000 per year. Carl paid for and purchased a 12-month insurance policy on October 1, Year 1. On October 1, Year 2, Carl’s insurance increased to $3,300 per year. A building contract Carl was working on was delayed when they had to obtain additional permitting. Because cash flow was tight, Carl delayed renewing the insurance policy. Instead of making the payment due on October 1, Year 2, Carl paid 3 months of insurance in arrears on January 1, Year 3. Carl is a cash-method taxpayer and took advantage of the 12-month rule in Year 1 for prepayments. What is Carl’s insurance expense deduction for Year 2?
