Color Paint Shop, Inc. is an accrual basis taxpayer that paints automobiles. During 2018, the company painted Sam’s car and was to receive $1,000 payment from his insurance company. Sam was not satisfied with the work, however, and the insurance company refused to pay. In December 2018, Color and Sam agreed that Color would receive $800 for the work, subject to final approval by the insurance company. In the past, Color had come to terms with customers only to have the insurance company negotiate an even smaller amount. In May 2019, the insurance company reviewed the claim and paid the $800 to Color. An IRS agent thinks that Color should report $1,000 of income in 2018 and deduct a $200 loss in 2019.

In August 1995, Smith Company ("Smith") entered into a lease with Jones Two, Inc. ("Jones"). By the terms of the lease, Jones leased a Washington D.C. property (the "Property") that was owned by Smith for a period of ten (10) years.

In 1995, when Jones originally entered into the lease it had not filed its articles of incorporation in any state. However, it represented itself as having been incorporated in New York and Smith relied on that representation. In 1996, Smith realized that Jones was not incorporated but it continued to honor its lease with Jones.

Jones finally got around to properly incorporating in New York in 1997.

At all times, Jones conducted business as if it were a corporation and it complied with all of the terms of the Smith Lease.

By 2000, the value of the Property had increased significantly and Smith was looking for a way to get out of its lease with Jones so it could enter into a lease with a higher rent provision. Smith thought back to the 1995 creation of the lease and it recalled that Jones was not incorporated at that time.

Smith provided Jones with a notice of termination of the lease and directed Jones to vacate the Property within 90 days stating that the lease was void since Jones did not legally exist at the time it entered into the lease. Jones refused to vacated and maintained that it was entitled to use the property until 2005 under the terms of the lease.

Provide an answer to the following questions and be sure to fully explain the reasons for your answer. Be sure to use full sentences and paragraph form in providing your responses.

We know that Jones wants to keep the lease in place until 2005.

4. Could Jones use the concept of a de jure corporation to effectively counter the argument of Smith? Why or why not?

5. Could Jones use the concept of a de facto corporation to effectively counter the argument of Smith? Why or why not?

6. Could Jones use the concept of a corporation by estoppel to effectively counter the argument of Smith? Why or why not?
