Question:
BigCo is a calendar year accrual method taxpayer. It is an insurance company. It receives premiums from policyholders to fund policy payout obligations. When it earns excess income, it distributes that income to policyholders as rebates.
In December of Year 1, it announced that it would pay rebates to some policyholders in February of Year 2. At the time of the announcement, the policyholders were not specifically identified, nor was the final amount of rebates to be paid known, but a guaranteed minimum amount of $1 million was specified.
Provide arguments for and against deducting the rebates in Year 1. Provide citations to authority as you go.
