Homework Answers

Answer #1

The answer is option “d” - It will not be an S corporation for 2014.

In this case the revocation has been filed on March 15th 2014. As per law if IRS receives the termination letter on or prior to 15th day of the 3rd month of the corporation’s tax year then the revocation will be effective at the beginning of the corporation’s current tax year.

Here the filing was done on the 15th day of March (which is the 3rd month) and so revocation will be for the entire year.
