Refer to Example 42 in text Section 4-5e.

• Albert owns 100% of A Corporation, Betty is the sole proprietor of B Company, and Cai is the sole proprietor of C Company.
• Each business generated $500,000 of taxable income and before-tax cash flow.
• A Corporation and B Company produce a product, but C Company provides accounting services.
• A Corporation will distribute all of its after-tax income to Albert.
• All three owners face a 37% marginal tax rate on ordinary income.
• B Company qualifies for the 199A deduction, but C Company does not because it provides accounting services and its taxable income exceeds the threshold for that deduction.

Assume the tax rate applied to dividend income equals the top 20% net long-term capital gain rate plus the 3.8% net investment income tax rate. The corporate tax rate is 21% and 199A deduction is 20%.

What will be the values of A Corporation, B Company, and C Company after three years? Assume that each business can reinvest its after-tax cash flow back into the business and that there is no unrealized appreciation of their assets.
