Mary, a single taxpayer, purchased 10,000 shares of § 1244 stock several years ago at a cost of $20 per share. In November of the current year, Mary received an offer to sell the stock for $12 per share. She has the option of either selling all of the stock now or selling half of the stock now and half of the stock in January of next year. Mary will receive a salary of $80,000 for the current year and $90,000 next year. Mary will have long-term capital gains of $8,000 for the current year and $10,000 next year.

If Mary's goal is to minimize her AGI for the two years, determine whether she should sell all of her stock this year or half of her stock this year and half next year.

a. The loss on the sale of Mary's § 1244 stock is treated as an ordinary loss. This treatment for taxpayers filing as single is limited to $ per year.

b. Determine Mary's total AGI under both options for the current year and next year.

If an amount is zero, enter "0".

The corporation must meet certain requirements for § 1244 stock. The major requirement is that the total amount of money and other property received by the corporation for stock as a contribution to capital (or paid-in surplus) does not exceed $1 million. The $1 million test is made at the time the stock is issued. Section 1244 stock can be common or preferred stock. Section 1244 applies only to losses.

Which option will result in the best overall tax consequence for Mary?
