Q5 – $0 is right

Choice “a” is correct. Losses resulting from the sale, exchange or worthlessness of Section 1244 qualifying stock (also called small business stock) are treated as ordinary losses up to $50,000 in any tax year. However, this loss is available only to original owners of the stock. Because Jackson inherited the stock, he is not the original owner. Therefore, in this case, no ordinary loss may be deducted. (Note that Jackson would be allowed a capital loss in the year the stock was deemed entirely worthless. The capital loss would be deducted under the personal capital loss rules and calculated using the likely transfer basis of $25,000.)

Tricky one…
