When is adjustment due to partners' retirement made?
Article Abstract:
The basis of partnership property may be adjusted when conducting a distribution of partnership property in relation to the liquidation of the interest of a retiring partner. The election is performed by registering a written statement with the partnership return for the year that the distribution is made. According to Section 734(b), the body must raise or lower the modified basis of partnership property by any gain or loss the retiring partner acknowledges. Revenue Ruling 93-13, IRB 1993-7, 12 provides that in such elections, the basis adjustment should conform in both timing and amount to the retiring partner's recognition of gain or loss. Reg. 1.736-1(b)(6) states that when the entire liquidation payments is a fixed total, a retiring partner may measure the gain or loss by the difference between the distribution in the year and the proportion of the adjusted basis of the partner for the partnership interest related to the distribution.
