Section 382 caps a startup's pre-ownership-change net operating loss deductions at the pre-change fair market value multiplied by the long-term tax-exempt rate (about 3.56 percent in February 2026), triggered when 5 percent shareholders collectively gain more than 50 percentage points over a rolling three-year testing period.
Section 465 at-risk rules cap partnership and S-corp losses at your actual economic stake.
Section 4960 imposes a 21% excise tax when a tax-exempt organization pays a covered employee more than $1 million. The 2025 OBBBA expansion redefines "covered employee" as anyone employed since 2017, widening the tax base for hospitals, universities, and foundations filing Form 4720 in 2026.
Section 83(i) lets qualified employees of qualified private companies defer federal income tax on RSU settlements and NSO exercises for up to five years. The 80 percent grant rule, mandatory escrow, and 30-day election deadline explain why adoption stays in the single digits — and when the election still pays off.
The Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax imposes a 15% levy on Adjusted Financial Statement Income for corporations averaging over $1 billion in AFSI. A practical guide to who qualifies, how AFSI is computed under section 56A, the FPMG $100M U.S. test, Form 4626 mechanics, and the interim simplified safe harbor.
Under OBBBA, Section 250 renames FDII to FDDEI, sets the deduction at 33.34%, eliminates the QBAI offset, and removes interest and R&E allocation — producing an effective 14% federal rate on qualifying foreign-derived income for U.S. C corporations filing Form 8993 in 2026.
A working guide to the FDII (now FDDEI) deduction on Form 8993 — which U.S. C corporations qualify, how the Section 250 math drops the effective federal rate to 13.125% on foreign-derived income, the taxable income limitation, documentation the IRS expects, and how OBBBA simplifies the calculation starting in 2026 by removing the QBAI step and expense allocations.
A 2026 fiduciary's guide to Form 1041 — why trust brackets hit 37% at $15,200, how distributable net income routes taxable income to beneficiaries through Schedule K-1, and how the 65-day election cuts the tax bill after year-end.
Form 8283 is required when total noncash charitable contributions exceed $500. Above $5,000, donors need a USPAP-compliant qualified appraisal and three signatures on Section B; over $500,000 the full appraisal attaches to the return. Section 170(o) can claw the deduction back if the charity disposes of tangible property within three years, and the 40% gross valuation misstatement penalty has no reasonable-cause defense.
Form 8886 discloses reportable transactions to the IRS. Missing it triggers a Section 6707A penalty up to $200,000 per year for entities and keeps the assessment statute open indefinitely on listed transactions under Section 6501(c)(10). This guide breaks down the five categories, the penalty math, filing mechanics, and the foreign currency loss trap that catches accidental filers.
Form 8886 carries a 75% penalty for undisclosed listed transactions, capped at $200,000 for entities, with no reasonable cause defense and a statute that stays open until one year after you file. Here's who must file, what counts as reportable, and how to handle late disclosure.
