Answer:

$9,000

Explanation:

Calculation of the amount Vernon deduct for rent expense on his 2019 tax return will be :

Rent(lease)×Numbers of months used

Where:

Rent (lease)= 3,000

Numbers of months=3

Hence:

3,000×3=$9,000

Therefore the amount Vernon deduct for rent expense on his 2019 tax return is $9,000 which is 3000×3 month.

The 3 months is from 1st October to 31st December.
