She participated in the activity for 350,400 , 450 , and 420 hours during 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017, respectively. This was well below all other employees. The theater had losses allocated to her of \(\$ 21,000, \$ 6,000\), \(\$ 19,000\), and \(\$ 12,000\) for \(2014,2015,2016\), and 2017 , respectively. In 2018, however, she participated 750 hours in the business, and her share of the movie theater net income was \(\$ 24,000\). Her income from other sources (portfolio income) was \(\$ 27,500\).
