Question:
Diego (32) is filing as a single taxpayer. He changed jobs during the year, and when he left his first job, he decided to take a distribution of funds from his 401(k). He used the funds to make a down payment on a new car. The taxable amount of this distribution, reported in box 2a of Form 1099-R, was $14,500. There was a code 1 in box 7 of the Form 1099-R.
Diego was also the beneficiary of one of his great-grandmother's traditional IRAs. She passed away during the year, and Diego took a $2,000 distribution from the IRA. He used the money to pay down his credit card debt. As far as he knows, all of his great-grandmother's contributions to the account were deductible. This distribution was reported to him on a Form 1099-R with a code 4 in box 7.
