Partnerships: Filling in the Knowledge Gaps
In the past couple of years, the IRS added new line items on Form 1065 and Schedule K-1 that raise several questions. For example, can or should the partnership elect out of the centralized partnership audit regime? If they don’t make the election, what does that mean? What is 704(c) gain or (loss)? Why doesn't the partner’s basis in the partnership equal their capital account? In this session, we’ll cover these concepts and more to fill in the gaps with respect to partnerships.
Objectives
Upon completion of the session, the learner will be able to:
• Summarize the tax implications of the centralized partnership audit regime
• Identify built-in gain property under 704(c) and recognize the potential tax effects
• Allocate partnership liabilities
• Compare and contrast the partner’s tax basis capital account with their basis in the partnership
• Summarize the rules for making a 754 election and the resulting tax consequences
