Ralph owns a building that he is trying to lease. Ralph is a calendar-year, cash-method taxpayer and is trying to evaluate the tax consequences of three different lease arrangements. Under lease 1, the building rents for $700 per month, payable on the first of the next month, and the tenant must make a $700 security deposit that is refunded at the end of the lease. Under lease 2, the building rents for $7,700 per year, payable at the time the lease is signed, but no security deposit is required. Under lease 3, the building rents for $700 per month, payable at the beginning of each month, and the tenant must pay a security deposit of $1,400 that is to be applied toward the rent for the last two months of the lease. (Leave no answers blank. Enter zero if applicable.)
