Lauren Purchased a Home on January 1,2013 for $500,000 by Making

Lauren purchased a home on January 1,2013 for $500,000 by making a down payment of $200,000 and financing the remaining $300,000 with a 30-year loan,secured by the residence.During 2013,Lauren made interest-only payments on the loan.On July 1,2013,when her home was valued at $500,000,she borrowed an additional $150,000,secured by the residence.During 2013,she made interest-only payments on the second loan.Which of the following statements regarding the deductibility of the interest Lauren paid is correct (assume she uses the chronological order of the loans to determine deductible interest expense if a limitation applies) ?

A) Lauren may deduct all of the interest on the first loan but she may deduct only two-thirds of the interest on the second loan unless she uses the loan proceeds to substantially improve the home.
B) Lauren may deduct all of the interest on the first loan but she may deduct only two-thirds of the interest on the second loan no matter what she does with the proceeds of the second loan.
C) Lauren may deduct all of the interest on the first loan or all of the interest on the second loan.
D) Lauren may deduct all of the interest on the first loan and all of the interest on the second loan no matter what she does with the loan proceeds.Interest on a home equity loan is limited to $100,000,therefore,since she borrowed $150,000 only 2/3 of the interest is deductible ($100,000 ÷ $150,000 = 2/3) .If the proceeds are used to improve the home,the debt is considered acquisition indebtedness.
