Realization And Recognition Of Losses On Stock Surrenders: A Frolic Through Subchapter C, Gwendolyn Griffith Jan 1989

Realization And Recognition Of Losses On Stock Surrenders: A Frolic Through Subchapter C, Gwendolyn Griffith

Florida State University Law Review

A shareholder's surrender of stock to a corporation for no consideration arguably results in a realized loss to the shareholder. But should that loss be recognized? The Supreme Court's decision in Fink v. Commissioner denied loss recognition for stock surrenders resulting in only a small reduction in a shareholder's percentage ownership in a corporation. While correct in results, the analytical basis for this decision is problematic and offers a unique opportunity to examine the basic issues of loss realization and recognition within the context of subchapter C of the Internal Revenue Code.

Who Should Pay The Corporate Tax In A Flat Tax World?, Rebecca S. Rudnick Jan 1989

Who Should Pay The Corporate Tax In A Flat Tax World?, Rebecca S. Rudnick

Articles by Maurer Faculty

This article reviews the corporate tax system within the context of the historical bias and current effects of the current system of taxation of corporations and shareholders. Drawing on public finance theory, financial markets microstructure research, and perspectives on corporate governance, Professor Rudnick proposes a profits tax on the liquid equity of firms. She finds this to be a normative rationale for a double tax system under optimal tax principles due to the inelasticity of demand for and supply of liquidity and the economic rent it produces. The value of liquidity in different capital markets is the crucial determinate. Under …

Should General Utilities Be Reinstated To Provide Partial Integration Of Corporate And Personal Income—Is Half A Loaf Better Than None?, Douglas A. Kahn Jan 1988

Should General Utilities Be Reinstated To Provide Partial Integration Of Corporate And Personal Income—Is Half A Loaf Better Than None?, Douglas A. Kahn

Articles

The General Utilities doctrine is the name given to the now largely defunct tax rule that a corporation does not recognize a gain or a loss on making a liquidating or nonliquidating distribution of an appreciated or depreciated asset to its shareholders. The roots of the doctrine, can be traced to a regulation promulgated in 1919 that denied realization of gain or loss to a corporation when making a liquidating distribution of an asset in kind. No regulatory provision existed which specified the extent to which realization would or would not be triggered by a nonliquidating distribution such as a …
