Expert Solution
Step 1

Since you have posted a question with multiple sub-parts, we will solve first three sub-parts for you. To get remaining sub-parts solved please post the complete question and mention the sub-parts to be solved.

a: 

Realized loss : Basis – Fair market Value : $350,000 - $300,000 = $50,000. But it cannot be recognized by the parrot corporation due to the section 267. But E&P for Parrot Corporation would be reduced by $75,000 ($50,000 + $25,000)

Constructive Dividend = Fair market value – Selling Price to Tom = $300,000 - $275,000 = $25,000

Parrot has is a ($50,000) realized loss of which $0 is recognized. In additions, there is a $25,000 constructive dividend. As a result, E&P is reduced by $75,000.
