You are the sole shareholder of Acme Corporation.
Please note that the financial statements have already been issued using the information above and will not be
amended.
You formed Acme by contributing $10,000 to the corporation in return for 1 share of stock on 1/01/16. You named
yourself to the role of President and every other officer position. Your Acme salary for the year 2016 was $400,000.
(This is included in the salary amount reported on the income statement.) Running Acme is your full time job.
Acme’s sole depreciable asset was equipment purchased on 1/01/16 for $10,000. On the Acme financial statements, no
depreciation was deducted in 2016. For tax purposes, you will use accelerated depreciation by using MACRS
depreciation for a 5 year asset.
Acme also received a 2016 K-1 for a partnership interest it owned during the year. The K-1 showed ordinary income of
$14,000 and interest income of $10,000. No partnership income was recorded on the financial statements.
Acme owns less than 1% of GM stock outstanding.
Acme has no cost of goods sold.
