How can we save tax ?
1) Calculating the tax implications if Tobias receives a $90,000 salary:
The Tobias acknowledge the $90,000 in ordinary income. Tobias receives a $90,000 deduction from the Corporation. His stock basis is thus decreased to $0 as a result. He then has a $10,000 Loss Carryover.
Similar to part (a), but McLin gives Tobias a $90,000 dividend from AEP instead:
The Tobias family recognizes the $90,000 in dividend income. Pass-through without deductions; $80,000 in remaining stock basis. The AEP is then decreased to $0.
