Ashareholder purchases 30 percent of the stock of an s corporation two-thirds of the way through the year for $20,000. the s corporation incurs an operating loss of $300,000 for the year. what the amount that the shareholder may deduct on his personal income tax return, assuming the at-risk and passive activity rules do not apply?

Explained

Explanation:

In most cases, the shareholder will receive a K-1 reporting a loss of approximately $30,000.

($300,000×122/365×30%).

Regardless of what the K-1 says, the shareholder is subject to at-risk and passive activity loss rules and will only be able to deduct $20,000 on his return. The balance will be carried forward.

all of them make sense but, i would have to say ask someone who has been there/or lives there, and/or read recent newspapers from that city.

hope this !
