Problem 21-35 (Algorithmic) (LO. 6, 7, 9, 10)

Amy and Mitchell share equally in the profits, losses, and capital of the accrual basis AM Products LLC. The LLC does not need to report financial information to any third parties, so capital accounts are determined using tax rules (rather than GAAP). Amy is a managing member of the LLC (treated as a general partner) and is a U.S. person.

At the beginning of the current year, Amy's capital account has a balance of $596,000, and the LLC has debts of $387,400 payable to unrelated parties. The debts are recourse to the LLC, but neither of the LLC members has personally guaranteed them. Assume that all LLC debt is shared equally between the partners. The following information about AM's operations for the current year is obtained from the LLC's records.

Operating income*	$894,000
W-2 wages	200,000
Depreciation expense	300,000
Interest income	8,940
Long-term capital loss	5,960
Long-term capital gain	17,880
Charitable contribution (cash)	8,990
Cash distribution to Amy	44,700
Unadjusted basis of partnership depreciable property immediately after acquisition	1,600,000

* Operating income equals revenue less operating expenses (other than expenses listed separately above).

Year-end LLC debt payable to unrelated parties is $271,180. Assume that all transactions are reflected in her beginning capital and basis in the same manner. Also assume that all AM Products' activities are eligible for the qualified business income deduction.
