Business & farm

Attempting to work through things of this nature on a forum such as this is difficult, vs a one on one.  So bear with me.

  • Are you saying that when your clients partnership invested in another partnership they acquired 10,000 units?
  • And now the partnership redeemed 2,778 units as reflected on line 19C
  • So now you have 7,222 units in the partnership?
  • But no cash?

Still trying to get an understanding of the facts:

  • You indicate that you received the shares at a higher FMV, but your original facts indicate this was a non cash distribution
  • Who's determining the FMV?
    • Typically when something like this occurs, there is cash involved
    • There's no benefit in saying the FMV has increased unless there is some type of transaction that validates the FMV.
  • You indicate the original K-1 was for 2020.  What was done with the K-1 for 2020?
    • How was that reflected on your client's 2020 form 1065?
    • Do you have an account titled "investment" on the balance sheet of your client?
  • I've handled a significant number of Private Equity Funds, so it's not like this is an area that I have not dealt with in the past.
