Volunteer Corporation reported taxable income of $500,000 from operations this year. During the year, the company made a distribution of land to its sole shareholder, Rocky Topp. The land’s fair market value was $75,000 and its tax and E&P basis to Volunteer was $25,000. Rocky assumed a mortgage attached to the land of $15,000. Any gain from the distribution will be taxed at 21 percent. The company had accumulated E&P of $750,000 at the beginning of the year.
c. Compute Volunteer’s accumulated E&P at the beginning of next year.

Taxable income = Taxable income from operations +Gain on distribution of land = $500,000+($75,000 - $25,000) = $550,000
Federal income tax = ($550,000 x 21%)= 115500
Current E&P = Taxable income-Federal income tax-Adjustment for E&P gain on distribution of land = 550,000-115500-0 = $434,500
