For book purposes, the corporation expensed the entire expenditure. For tax purposes, the corporation elected under Sec. 248 to deduct $5,000 in 2010 and amortize the remaining $9,000 amount over 180 months, with a full months amortization taken for January 2010. The corporation reports this amortization in Part VI of Form 4562 and includes it in Other Deductions on Form 1120, Line 26. C3-67 C3-68 Capital Gains and Losses: The corporation sold 100 shares of PDQ Corp. common stock on October 8, 2013, for $200,000. The corporation acquired the stock on December 15, 2012, for $140,000. The corporation also sold 75 shares of JSB Corp. common stock on June 18, 2013, for $168,000. The corporation acquired this stock on September 18, 2011, for $180,000. The corporation has an $8,000 capital loss carryover from 2011. Fixed Assets and Depreciation: For book purposes: The corporation uses straight-line depreciation over the useful lives of assets as follows: Store building, 50 years; Equipment, 15 years (old) and ten years (new); and Trucks, five years. The corporation takes a half-years depreciation in the year of acquisition and the year of disposition and assumes no salvage value. The book financial statements in Tables C:3-4 and C:3-5 reflect these calculations. For tax purposes: All assets are MACRS property as follows: Store building, 39-year nonresidential real property; equipment, seven-year property; and trucks, five-year property. The corporation acquired the store building for $2 million and placed it in service on January 2, 2010. The corporation acquired two pieces of equipment for $300,000 (Equipment 1) and $600,000 (Equipment 2) and placed them in service on January 2, 2010. The corporation acquired the trucks for $280,000 and placed them in service on July 18, 2011. The trucks are not listed property and are not subject to the limitation on luxury automobiles. The corporation did not make the expensing election under Sec. 179 or take bonus depreciation on any property acquired before 2013. Accumulated tax depreciation through December 31, 2012, on these properties is as follows:

Store building $ 151,780 Equipment 1 168,810 Equipment 2 337,620 Trucks 145,600 On October 16, 2013, the corporation sold for $320,000 Equipment 1 that originally cost 300,000 on January 2, 2010. The corporation had no Sec. 1231 losses from prior years. In a separate transaction on October 17, 2013, the corporation acquired and placed in service a piece of equipment costing $2.2 million. Assume these two transactions do not qualify as a like-kind exchange under Reg. Sec. 1.1031(k)-1(a). The new equipment is seven-year property. The corporation made the Sec. 179 expensing election with regard to the new equipment but elected out of bonus depreciation. Where applicable, use published IRS depreciation tables to compute 2013 depreciation (reproduced in Appendix C of this text). Other Information: The corporations activities do not qualify for the U.S. production activities deduction. Ignore the AMT and accumulated earnings tax. The corporation received dividends (see Income Statement in Table C:3-5) from taxable, domestic corporations, the stock of which Melodic Musical Sales, Inc. owns less than 20%. The corporation paid $98,000 in cash dividends to its shareholders during the year and charged the payment directly to retained earnings. The state income tax in Table C:3-5 is the exact amount of such taxes incurred during the year. The corporation is not entitled any credits. Ignore the financial statement impact of any underpayment penalties incurred on the tax return. Required: Prepare the 2013 corporate tax return for Melodic Musical Sales, Inc. along with any necessary supporting schedules. Optional: Prepare both Schedule M-3 (but omit Schedule B) and Schedule M-1 even though the IRS does not require both Schedule M-1 and Schedule M-3.
