Explaination

The S corporation election must be made by the 15th day of the third month of the taxable year to be valid for the current taxable year. If the election is made after that date, it will take effect on the first year of the next taxable year. Since Village Corp. changed into S corporation on December 5th, year 4, Village's S status will begin on January 1st, year 5.
