What is the proper amount, if any, of the reduction to X Corp.’s earnings and profits?
1. Would your answer change if the corporation’s assets were worth $340,000, and A received only $30,000 in exchange for his X Corporation stock? If so how?
V. A. X Corporation is a manufacturer of small appliances. X Corporation had two factories. A fire destroys one of the factories. The factory destroyed by the fire accounted for 20% of X Corporation’s gross revenue. 25% of X Corporation’s employees were employed at the factory and the net fair market value of the factory was 20% of X Corporation’s total net fair market value. X Corporation received insurance proceeds of $1,000,000. Rather than rebuilding the plant, X Corporation discharges its employees and distributes the $1,000,000 to Adams, its sole shareholder. Adams’ basis in his X Corporation stock is $200,000. X Corporation has earnings and profits of $2,000,000. What are the tax consequences to Adams?
1. Assume X Corporation had merely sold the factory rather than it being destroyed by a fire. How would that affect your answer to Part A?
