    I am all doubting Thomas today…. have a big confusion in Wiley online simulation ….number Reg sim 0001……

    the question is about a corp. and we need to identify what kind of income it is….

    in point 3 it asks :”gain on sale of unimproved land used for business parking lot held for 17 mnths” and the answer is Sec 1231 gain…..

    In the same sim last question asks the same question again : gain on sale of unimproved land used as parking lot for business held for 9 mnths…and the answer is Ordinary income….why?

    Also there is point 6 that asks : Casualty gain on personal residence held 10 years …( ithought it was a corp so i said “not includable”….but they say it is LTCG….i thought corp never had LTCG….

    oh god….i am freaking out on how little i know….

    @qlad 1231 property is real or business property held for more than one year. The second question that refers to the same land is only held for 9 months thereby making it ordinary. Hope that helps!

    Hi guys! I am having trouble understanding the C corpiration “Formation” taxation…. I pretty understood what's in the fisrt few pages of REG 3, but actually it sounds very confusing when it comes to MCQs and the simulations!! I found 2 MCQs in R3 with the correct answers not among the choices! I am also stuck on the 3rd sim of the 1st group…Just wanna know how Metchel's tax basis is $40,000 not $50,000. Please guys I need your help!

    I think Qlad you will be fine, Just keep practicing and work that Wiley Test bank until you start hitting over 75 πŸ™‚
