S corporations maintain three separate ledgers — retained earnings, AAA, and shareholder stock basis — and each one answers a different question about the entity and its owners. Understanding why they diverge, and which one actually governs whether a distribution is taxable or a loss is deductible, is where a lot of tax professionals run into trouble. Jeremy walks through the mechanics of all three, including Form 7203, the order-of-operations rules for calculating stock basis, and what's really going on when a practitioner misclassifies distributions in excess of basis as shareholder loans.
