FACTS Summer Fun, Inc. is owned by Mary Sun and her husband, James Sun. The corporation manufactures large beach umbrellas (business activity code number 339900). The corporation has reported positive financial and taxable incomes since inception. The company is located at 100 Summer Way, Boca Raton, Florida 33431. The company's employer identification number is 98-7654321, and corporation uses a calendar year for tax purposes. The date of incorporation was February 9, 2010. Mary Sun (social security number 123-45-6789) is an 81 percent shareholder and president of the company. James Sun (social security number 111-11-1111) is a 19 percent shareholder and vice president of the company. Both persons devote 100 percent of their time to the corporation. Marys compensation is $187,154 per year, and Jamess compensation is $60,899 per year. The corporation is not a personal holding company. While the corporation is a 'closely-held C corporation,' it does not engage in activities to which the at-risk or passive activity loss limitations apply. The corporation files its tax return on the accrual method. Inventory has been consistently valued at Cost under the FIFO method using the full absorption procedure. Inventory capitalization rules of Internal Revenue Code Section 263A do not apply due to the 'small business exception' (average annual gross receipts for the three preceding taxable years do not exceed $25 million). Further, the business interest deduction does not apply either as the corporation meets the small business exception for this rule as well. The accounting records are computerized.
