JH, Inc., is a calendar year, accrual basis corporation with Joe as its sole shareholder (basis in his stock is $90,000). On January 1 of the current year, JH Corporation has accumulated E & P of $200,000. Before considering the effect of the distribution described below, the corporation’s current E & P is $50,000. On November 1, JH distributes an office building to Joe. The office building has an adjusted basis of $80,000 (fair market value of $100,000) and is subject to a mortgage of $110,000. Assume that the building has been depreciated using the ADS method for both income tax and E & P purposes. What are the tax consequences of the distribution to JH and to Joe?
