Answer:

Jackson can only deduct $0.

Explanation:

The treatment of this question falls under Section 1244 of the IRS and its treatment for Tax.

According to Section 1244 Stock, there are conditions before a stock loss can be deducted as an ordinary loss.

Two of the requirements are as follows:

  • The shareholder must have purchased the stock and not received it as compensation.
  • Only individual shareholders who purchase the stock directly from the company qualify for the special tax treatment.

In the case of Jackson, the stock was inherited from his parents and not purchased directly from Bean Corp disqualifying from the provision of the section.

why do companies have middle management instead of just having senior management that retains all power in the organization?
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Small companies don't have middle management, so it is entirely appropriate for senior management to implement strategy and guide employees directly.

The purpose of management is nothing to do with power, but rather to create, plan and execute the vision and strategy of the organization through the workforce and technology.
