Burt is the custodian at quaker inn an s corporation that


Burt is the custodian at Quaker Inn, an S corporation that has paid him bonuses over the years in the form of shares in the corporation. Burt now holds 276 shares in Quaker Inn. While listening to a television debate about a national health care plan, Burt decides that the company’s health coverage is unfair. He is concerned about this because his wife, Dora, is seriously ill. During the second week in December, Burt informs Quaker’s president that he would like a Christmas bonus of $75,000 cash, or else he will sell 10 shares of his stock to one of his relatives, a non resident alien. The resulting loss of the S election would trigger about $135,000 in federal corporate income taxes for the current year alone. How would you defend Burt’s position? Explain.
