Video of How to Calculate Basis for S Corporation Stock in Tax Accounting course by Edspira channel, video No. 64 free certified online
A shareholder's basis in S corporation stock is calculated by making a series of upward and downward adjustments to the shareholder's initial stock basis.
You can calculate a shareholder's basis in S corporation stock as follows:
initial basis
+ capital contributions
+ ordinary income (pro rata share)
+ separately stated income (pro rata share)
+ tax-exempt income (pro rata share)
+ non-oil and non-gas depletion in excess of the property's basis (pro rata share)
- distributions not reported as income
- nondeductible, noncapital expenses such as fines and penalties (pro rata share)
- ordinary loss (pro rata share)
- separately stated loss and deductions (pro rata share)
- oil and gas depletion that doesn't exceed the property's basis (pro rata share)
new basis
Adjustments are made in a certain order. Here are the ordering rules:
(1) basis is first increased by the pro rata share of income items and excess depletion
(2) basis is next decreased by distributions
(3) basis is then decreased by nondeductible, noncapital expenses
(4) basis is finally decreased by deductions and losses
A shareholder can elect to have losses reduce their stock basis before accounting for nondeductible, noncapital expenses.
Note that a shareholder's basis in S corporation stock can never go below zero (a negative basis isn't possible).
