S Corp Sold on an Accrual Basis

[1464940]

An S corp on an accrual basis sold all its assets and filed the final 1120S in 2019 with an installment notes.  Can the sole shareholder use installment method for his individual income tax return?  If so, besides filing Form 6252, do you make the adjustments on Sch D since gains on the accrual basis K-1 flows to Sch D?  Thanks.

This article has a discussion of S corp sales on the installment basis, and handling of the note in distribution depending on whether the S corp had, or didn't have, a plan of liquidation at sale.

I would also believe there would be a reporting difference based on whether the SCorp sold its assets, or whether the SCorp ownership stock were sold.
