When a partner sells an LLC or partnership interest, Section 751 can recharacterize a large share of the gain as ordinary income taxed up to 37 percent. Form 8308 is the partnership's required disclosure of that hot-asset gain on Form 1065, with a January 31 furnishing leg and a return-due-date filing leg in 2026.
Selling a partnership interest can convert expected capital gain into ordinary income under Section 751, raising the federal tax bill on the recharacterized slice from 23.8 percent to 37 percent. This guide explains Form 8308, hot-asset categories, the January 31 partner statement deadline, and what sellers, buyers, and partnership administrators need to do for 2025 and 2026 transfers.
Form 8825 consolidates partnership and S-corp rental real estate activity, with line 21 flowing to Schedule K-1 box 2 where each owner applies the passive activity loss rules under Section 469.

Owners hit basis, at-risk, and passive walls in that order before a loss reaches Form 1040.
A practical walkthrough of Schedule F for farmers and ranchers, covering crop insurance deferral under Section 451, weather-related livestock relief (Section 451(g) and 1033(e)), Section 175 soil and water conservation deductions capped at 25% of farm gross income, Section 179 and bonus depreciation, and Schedule J income averaging using elected farm income across three base years.
The Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax imposes a 15% levy on Adjusted Financial Statement Income for corporations averaging over $1 billion in AFSI.

When you sell depreciated business property, Section 1245 recaptures prior depreciation as ordinary income (up to 37%), while Section 1250 caps the recapture on real estate at 25% — turning a 100% bonus depreciation deduction into a large tax bill at exit unless you plan with cost segregation, 1031 exchanges, and a clean fixed-asset register.
OBBBA permanently restored 100% bonus depreciation and raised the Section 179 cap to $2.56M for 2026. A practical framework for small businesses to choose between them — covering taxable-income limits, state decoupling, SUV caps, and the new Section 168(n) qualified production property deduction.
Section 197 requires buyers in a taxable asset acquisition to amortize acquired intangibles — goodwill, customer lists, workforce in place, covenants not to compete — straight-line over 180 months. This guide walks through Form 8594 purchase price allocation, the anti-churning rules for related-party deals, the no-loss rule on dispositions, and Form 4562 reporting across the full 15-year cycle.
A Section 754 election triggers a 743(b) inside-basis step-up when a partner dies, sells, or is bought in — preventing heirs and incoming partners from paying tax twice on the same appreciation.
