LLM Corporate Tax Instructor: Dwight Drake C Corp Distribution Lingo 1. Dividend – Corp distributes cash or property to shareholders as a result of operations – not part of redemption of stock or liquidation. Distribution is “with respect to stock” and qualifies as dividend under Return of Capital - Corp distributes cash or property with respect to its stock which is not 316 dividend, nor part of redemption or liquidation. 3. Stock dividend – Corp distributes its own stock or debt obligation to its shareholders as a result of operations – not associated with a redemption or liquidation. 4. Redemption – Corp distributes money or property to shareholder to purchase (or redeem) stock owned by the shareholder. 5. Liquidation – Corp distributes money or property to shareholder as part of plan to liquidate or partially liquidate the business of the corporation.

LLM Corporate Tax Instructor: Dwight Drake 316 “Dividend” Definition Distribution is treated as dividend if: 1. Out of earnings and profits accumulated since 2/28/ Out of its earnings and profits for the current year, determined at end of year and without regard to E & P amount at time of distribution. Priority rules: - Every distribution deemed made from E & P to the extent thereof. Corp can’t designate otherwise. - Distributions deemed made from the most recent E & P.

LLM Corporate Tax Instructor: Dwight Drake The 301 Triple Tax Priority Distribution Amount: Amount of money plus fair market value of property distributed. Triple Priority: Distribution with respect to stock: Priority One: If dividend under 316, included in gross income. Priority Two: If not dividend, applied to reduce adjusted basis of stock. Tax free return of capital. Priority Three: If exceeds basis, excess treated as gain from the sale or exchange of property.

LLM Corporate Tax Instructor: Dwight Drake Determining E & P Concept: The true economic growth and improvement of the corporation. No precise definition. Calculation: Start with taxable income, then: Increase for other economic gains: Tax exempt interest, life insurance proceeds, tax refunds, etc. (but not nonrecognition gains under 1033, 351, etc.) Increase for deductions that have no economic effect: Dividends received deduction, excess percentage depletion, etc. Decrease for economic losses not reflected in taxable income: federal taxes, losses between related parties, excess T & E expenses Timing differences: Depreciation, 453 installment sales; FIFO inventory, etc.

LLM Corporate Tax Instructor: Dwight Drake Problem 169 Taxable Income Calculation: Income items: Gross profit from sales 20,000 Dividends 5,000 LTCG 2,500 Total 27,500 Deductions Salaries 10,250 Dividend deduction (243) 3,500 Depreciation 2,800 LTCL (To extent of LTCG) 2,500 Total 19,050 Taxable Income 8,450

LLM Corporate Tax Instructor: Dwight Drake Problem 169 Current Earnings and Profits Calculation: Taxable Income 8,450 Add Items: Tax-exempt interest 3,000 Dividend deduction 3,500 Excess Depreciation 1,800 (STL, half yr. convention) Total Increases 8,300 Subtract Items: Excess LTGL (current only) 2,500 Est. fed taxes 800 Total Decreases (3,300) Current E & P 13,450

LLM Corporate Tax Instructor: Dwight Drake Pelican Corp. Problem 173 (a) Ann (a) Year 1: What tax effect? - 5k dividend for current E&P per 316 and k return of capital - 2.5k treated as gain on sale of stock per 301. May be LTCG. A stock basis reduced to 0. P Corp’s E&P is 0. 10k Stock Basis 5k Current E&P Zero Accumulated E&P 17.5k Distribution

LLM Corporate Tax Instructor: Dwight Drake Pelican Corp. Problem 173 (b) Ann (b) Year 2: - A has 10k dividend per 316(a)(2). - P Corp’s accumulated deficit E&P remains at 15k. - P Corp’s current E&P reduced to 0 per 312(a)(1). 10k Stock Basis 10k Current E&P -15k Accumulated E&P 10k Distribution

LLM Corporate Tax Instructor: Dwight Drake Pelican Corp. Problem 173 (c) Ann (c) Year 2: - Current E&P allocated pro rata to all distributions in year. Accumulated E&P allocated on first come-first serve basis. Thus… - April 1 10k distribution to A: 2k from current E&P and 8k from accumulated. Current reduced to 2k, accumulated reduced to 2k (10k- 8k). - October 1 10k distribution to A & B: 2k for current (1k each) and 2k from accumulated (1k each). Each have return of capital of 3k (5k- 2k). P Corp E&P reduced to 0. ½ Stock for 15k on July 1 4k Current E&P 10k Accumulated E&P 10k on 4/1, 5k on 10/1 10k Stock Basis Baker Corp 5k on 10/1

LLM Corporate Tax Instructor: Dwight Drake Pelican Corp. Problem 173 (d) Ann (d) Current E&P deficit allocated pro rata during year to reduce accumulated E&P. Accumulated E&P allocated on first come-first serve basis. Thus… - April 1 10k distribution to A: 2.5 k from current deficit (1/4 year), so accumulated E&P down to 7.5k. Dividend 7.5k, return of capital 2.5k. - October 1 10k distribution to A & B: No E&P left, so all return of capital. - B’s basis reduced from 15k to 10k. - A’s 10k basis reduced to 7.5k by 4/1 distribution and to 2.5k by 10/1 distribution. Sale of half stock to B creates 13,750 gain (15k less 1.25k basis). ½ Stock for 15k on July 1 4k Current E&P -10k Accumulated E&P 10k on 4/1, 5k on 10/1 10k Stock Basis Baker Corp 5k on 10/1

LLM Corporate Tax Instructor: Dwight Drake Problem 173 (c) & (d) Clarification Issue: What is A’s basis in stock on sale of ½ to B on 7/1? Two Possibilities: Determine at end of year or at time of sale. If end of year determination: (c) Basis would be: (10k – 3k return of capital on 10/1) / 2 = 3.5k. Gain on sale would be 15k less 3.5k = 11.5k. Basis in A’s remaining shares 3.5k. (d) Basis would be: (10k – 2.5 return on 4/1 – 5k return 10/1) / 2 = 1.25k. Gain on sale would be 13.75k. Basis in A’s remaining shares would be 1.25k. If time of sale determination: (c) Basis would be: 10k / 2 = 5k. Gain on sale 10k. Basis in remaining share would be 5k less 3k = 2k. (d) Basis would be: (10k – 2.5k return on 4/1) / 2 = 3.75k. Gain on sale would be 11.25k (15k less 3.75k). Basis in A’s remaining shares would be 3.75 before 10/1 5k distribution, which would take basis to zero and trigger 1.25 gain to A. Which approach correct? ??, but most think end of year.
