The designation “old” refers to property placed in service before 2006, and the designation “new” refers to property placed in service in 2006. For tax purposes: All assets are MACRS property as follows: Store building, 39-year nonresidential real property; Equipment, seven-year property; and Trucks, five-year property. The corporation acquired the store building for $2.5 million and placed it in service on January 2, 2003. The corporation acquired two pieces of equipment for $200,000 (Equipment 1) and $400,000 (Equipment 2) and placed them in service on January 2, 2003. The corporation acquired the old trucks for $230,000 and placed them in service on July 18, 2004. The corporation did not make the expensing election under Sec. 179 on any property acquired before 2006 and elected not to claim bonus depreciation. Also, the corporation did not elect the straight-line option or the alternative depreciation system (ADS) under MACRS. Accumulated tax depreciation through December 31, 2005 on these properties is as follows: Store building $189,725 Equipment 1 112,540 Equipment 2 225,080 Trucks 119,600 On November 16, 2006, the corporation sold for $250,000 Equipment 1 that originally cost $200,000 on January 2, 2003. The corporation had no Sec. 1231 losses from prior years. In a separate transaction on November 17, 2006, the corporation acquired and placed in service a piece of equipment costing $440,000. These two transactions do not qualify as a like-kind exchange under Reg. Sec. 1.1031(k)-1(a). The new equipment is seven-year property. The corporation made the Sec. 179 expensing election with regard to the new equipment. The corporation relies on Sec. 179(d)(3) and Reg. Sec. 1.179-4(d) to determine the cost of its Sec. 179 property. On May 15, 2006, the corporation exchanged its entire fleet of delivery trucks, which cost $230,000 on July 18, 2004 for similar trucks. On the date of exchange, the old trucks had a $120,000 FMV, and the new trucks had a $145,000 FMV. As part of the exchange, the corporation paid $25,000 cash in addition to the old trucks. For tax purposes, the exchange qualifies as a like-kind exchange. The new trucks are five-year property. Assume that neither the old nor new trucks are listed property according to Reg. Sec. 1.280F-6(c)(3)(iii) and Temp. Reg. Sec. 1.274-5T(k). The corporation relies on Temp. Reg. Sec. 1.168(i)-6T(e) to compute depreciation on the new trucks. Where applicable, use published IRS depreciation tables to compute 2006 depreciation (reproduced in Appendix C of this text). Other Information: • The corporation’s activities do not qualify for the U.S. production activities deduction. • Ignore the AMT and accumulated earnings tax. • The corporation received the $10,800 in dividends from taxable, domestic corporations, the stock of which Knoxville Musical Sales, Inc. owns less than 20%. • The corporation paid $90,000 in cash dividends to its shareholders during the year and charged the payment directly to retained earnings. • The corporation issued the bonds payable at par. Thus, no premium or discount need be amortized. • The corporation is not entitled any credits. Required: Prepare the 2006 corporate tax return for Knoxville Musical Sales, Inc. along with any necessary supporting schedules. Also, prepare Schedule M-3 as well as Schedule M-1 even though the IRS does not require both schedules.
