Question:
Gilmer Corporation, a cash-based taxpayer, made an S election effective for calendar year 20x6. On January 1, 20x6, the balance sheet revealed the following assets:
FMV | Adjusted Basis | Built-in Gain/Loss | |
Cash | 5,000 | 5,000 | 0 |
Accounts Receivable | 30,000 | 0 | 30,000 |
Inventory | 55,000 | 45,000 | 10,000 |
Land | 95,000 | 80,000 | 15,000 |
Investment | 5,000 | 65,000 | (60,000) |
Accounts Payable | (25,000) | 0 | (25,000) |
NUBIL | 165,000 | 195,000 | (30,000) |
Therefore, Gilmer claimed that it was not liable for the built-in gains tax, since there is no NUBIG; that is, there is a NUBIL. You determined that Gilmer had goodwill valued at $80,000.
What is Gilmer Corporation's true NUBIG?
