Albert forms a new corporation, Albert’s Investments, Inc., to hold the option. As the majority shareholder, and thus controlling director, of Burien Widgets, Albert orders Burien Widgets to authorize the purÂchase of the land from Albert’s Investments for $500,000. Albert then has Albert’s Investments buy the land and sell it to Burien Widgets, and loan the money to Burien Widgets for the purchase at a 20 percent interest rate.
