David Posted October 6, 2010 Report Posted October 6, 2010 S Corp TP has beginning basis of zero and a prior years loss carryforward of $291K. Current year income, and increase in basis, is $164K. TP also took distributions for $332K resulting in $168K distributions in excess of basis. Year end basis is zero. I will report the $168K excess distributions on Sch D subject to the LTCG rate of 15%. Is this normally how excess distributions are recorded? The ATX Basis Statement shows the total income items for $164K and the $291K prior years loss carryforward. However, at the bottom of the Basis Statement the loss carrover still shows $291K. Shouldn't the loss carryover be $$127K which is the $291K p.y. loss carryforward less the current year income of $164K? Has anyone else experienced this problem? What do I need to do to show the correct loss carryover? The TP should not be taxed on his 1040 for the current year income of $164K since he should be allowed to offset the income by the p.y. loss carryforward. Thanks for your help. Quote
