In the current year, Plum, Inc., a closely held C corporation, has $410,000 of net active income, $20,000 of portfolio income, a
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

(a) $430,000

(b) $355,000

Explanation:

To answer the question, it is important to understand the meaning of passive income or loss and how it applies to personal service corporation (PSC) and C corporation.

Passive income refers to income received from investment without active participation in the running of the business. Example of passive income is dividend.

For personal service corporation (PSC), when there is a passive loss, in can only be deducted from any other available passive income from other investments. If there is no other passive income, the passive loss is not deductible from active income.

For C corporation, passive loss is allowed to be deducted against net active income. However, it can not be deducted against portfolio income .

The questions are then answered as follows:

a) If Plum is a personal service corporation (PSC)

Since Plum is PSC, it cannot deduct passive activity loss of $75,000 from the net active income nor portfolio income.

Therefore, it taxable income is the addition of net active income and portfolio income as follows:

Taxable income = $410,000 + $410,000 = $430,000

b) Plum is not a personal service corporation

Here, Plum is considered as a C coporartion. Therefore, it can deduct the passive loss from the active income  but not from portfolio income. Its Taxable income is therefore as follows:

Taxable income = ($410,000 - $75,000) + $20,000 = $355,000

$240,000

Explanation:

In 2018 and 2019, Dorothy may deduct none of the net passive losses that remain after offsetting the passive income. In 2018, the $20,000 of passive income is used to absorb $20,000 of the $200,000 passive loss, leaving $180,000 of passive loss suspended. In 2019, the $40,000 of passive income is used against the $100,000 passive loss, leaving a $60,000 passive loss suspended for that year. Thus , a total of $240,000 of passive losses is suspended at the year 2019 into 2020.
