Abstract

In the great majority of cases involving the deduction of hobby losses, a holding that the taxpayer proved an intent to make a profit determined that losses from a farm or ranch were deductible against other income. In a recent Tax Court case, the taxpayers discovered that compliance with the hobby loss rules did not guarantee deductibility of their substantial ranching losses.
