It is already May of Year 2 and Joe is worried that this year is not going to be a profitable year due to all the rain outs. Based on his estimates he believes they will have an operating loss of $1,200,000. Since Year 1 was good and the Corporation is having to pay taxes for Year 1 income, he would like to apply the operating loss back to Year 1. Can Be You Sailing apply the operating loss of Year 2 back to Year 1 operating income tax return?

a. If the net operating loss was in 2017 he could carry the loss back and apply it to 2016 income, with an amended return.

b. If the net operating loss was in 2018 he could not carry the loss back to 2017 income, but he can carry it forward indefinitely.

c. Joe could use the loss against his individual ordinary income on his personal tax return (flow through business loss).

d. B and C are accurate options for Be You Sailing and shareholders

e. A and B are accurate options for Be You Sailing and shareholders
