S Corporation Tax Return. John Forsythe (SSN 555-55-5555) began a custom cabinet manufacturing business, Johns Cabinets (EIN 86-1122334 and Business Code 321000), four years ago as of July 1 of the current tax year. John incorporated the business, and the corporation made a timely election to be taxed as an S corporation. The business has been highly successful, but to bring in additional capital for expansion, it sold 10,000 shares of previously unissued stock to Johns friend, Tom Jones (SSN 666-66-6666), on March 1 of the current year for $80,000. John continues to hold his original 15,000 shares that were issued at incorporation for his contribution of money and property valued at $120,000.

The business used the additional capital to purchase $20,000 of new woodworking machines (7-year property) on October 15 and $60,000 as a down payment on the purchase of a new building for its manufacturing and office operations located at 7620 N. Commerce Place, Beavercreek, OH 45440. The business claimed only the basic MACRS depreciation deductions for these acquisitions. The total cost of the building was $320,000 and the S corporation began using it on October 1.

In the month the business began, the S corporation purchased $60,000 of used woodworking machinery. It elected to use ADS for cost recovery on the 7-year property to reduce any potential losses in the first years of the business. On September 15 of the current year, the business sold one of the old machines that had cost $10,000 originally for $5,000. When moving to the new building, a second machine that had cost $5,000 originally fell off the truck used to move it and was a total loss. The loss was not covered by insurance.

John works full-time in the business and takes a salary of $9,000 per month. Wages for his seven employees for the year were $220,000. (None of those employees made less than $7,000 or more than the FICA maximum.)
