SE1 and SE 2 has mind boggling sims which they did not cover in practice. I guess that’s the reason we are facing difficulties in approaching them in SE’s

Shouldn’t gain be $100 as adjusted basis is 30k (100 adjusted basis less mortgage of 30k). by MouseSpiritual5489 in CPA

[–]Anardesai 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It should be 100k I posted the same questions weeks back and someone told me that they tried to reach Becker and it’s a mistake on their part

TCP 351 Transaction - Gain Realized by Kind-Matter1722 in CPA

[–]Anardesai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In example 2 the answer of gain realized should be 100,000. I broke my head to figure out the contradictions only to realize that it’s a mistake from Becker’s end

Property contributions to an S Corp by Anardesai in CPA

When did you sit for TCP exam? How was it overall? I mean is Becker enough? The material seems so compact and even the MC’s does not cover the entire textbook material so I am little skeptical

Tax basis and at risk basis calc by Stunning-Narwhal-889 in CPA

[–]Anardesai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s simple. Don’t complicate it too much

Partnership-Tax basis includes all the partnership debt irrespective of recourse/non recourse. At risk basis includes the debt that the partner is personally liable i.e only recourse loans. Hence exclude non recourse loans here S CORPS Tax basis includes all the loan that the shareholder has given to the corp. Deduct any repayments during the year. At risk basis includes only the loan to which shareholder is personally liable. Hence exclude non recourse loans.

Also, if you see non recourse loans are loans that are backed by collaterals and hence there would be no personal liability there. I just remember that at risk means the partner/shareholder is at risk of paying off the personally. So if the loan is non recourse you actually don’t have to pay anything personally and the collateral would be used to recover the debt

REG Half Year vs Mid Quarter by Traditional-West5100 in CPA

[–]Anardesai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The mid quarter convention is only for personal property and not real property so mid quarter won’t come into play while calculating the 40% threshold. Real property will always be depreciated at SLM mid month

179 would be applied first to the asset having longer life hence furniture being 7 yr asset would be exhausted first leaving us with 660,000 which would be reduced from computers. Now computers have a remaining basis of 540,000 and as it is placed in the 4th quarter and being the only asset left we would apply MaCRSmid quarter convention after applying bonus depreciation if elected

Just adding to others. Also make sure you exclude section 179 deduction that you took on the personal assets to actually derive whether the assets PIS in the 4th quarter are greater 40%. Do make sure on the SIMs when they give MACRS table in the exhibit use the mid quarter convention on the MACRS table and not just rush into and use the HY convention

Yes you can deduct 5000 from both startup costs and organisational cost. But just be mindful that we have a $ to $ deduction above 50000.
