Tina is the only shareholder of edgecombe


Tina is the only shareholder of Edgecombe Corporation. Tina's stock basis is $100,000. She materially participates in the business and receives an annual salary of $50,000. Current economic conditions have caused cash flow issues for the corporation so Tina needs to transfer $60,000 to the business. Tina is trying to determine the best way to structure the cash transfer: a capital contribution, a loan to protect the stock investment or a loan to protect her salary. From a tax perspective, how would you advise Tina to structure the transaction in the event economic conditions continue to decline and the corporation may have to file for bankruptcy?
