What Is an IC-DISC?
An IC-DISC is a domestic corporation that has elected to be an IC-DISC and its election is still in effect. The IC-DISC election is made by filing Form 4876-A, Election To Be Treated as an Interest Charge DISC. Generally, an IC-DISC is not taxed on its income. Shareholders of an IC-DISC are taxed on its income when the income is actually (or deemed) distributed. In addition, section 995(f) imposes an interest charge on shareholders for their share of DISC-related deferred tax liability. See Form 8404, Interest Charge on DISC-Related Deferred Tax Liability, for details. To be an IC-DISC, a corporation must be organized under the laws of a state or the District of Columbia and meet the following tests. · At least 95% of its gross receipts during the tax year are qualified export receipts. · At the end of the tax year, the adjusted basis of its qualified export assets is at least 95% of the sum of the adjusted basis of all of its assets. · It has only one class of stock, and its outstanding stock has a par or stated value of at least $2,500 on each day of the tax year (or, for a new corporation, on the last day to elect IC-DISC status for the year and on each later day). · It maintains separate books and records. · It is not a member of any controlled group of which a foreign sales corporation (FSC) is a member. · Its tax year must conform to the tax year of the principal shareholder who has the highest percentage of voting power. If two or more shareholders have the highest percentage of voting power, the IC-DISC must elect a tax year that conforms to that of any one of the principal shareholders. See section 441(h) and its regulations for more information. · Its election to be treated as an IC-DISC is in effect for the tax year. See Definitions on page 3 and section 992 and related regulations for details. Distribution to meet qualification requirements. · An IC-DISC that does not meet the gross receipts test or qualified export asset test during the tax year will still be considered to have met them if, after the tax year ends, the IC-DISC makes a pro rata property distribution to its
Cat. No. 11476W

shareholders and specifies at the time that this is a distribution to meet the qualification requirements. · If the IC-DISC did not meet the gross receipts test, the distribution equals the part of its taxable income attributable to gross receipts that are not qualified export gross receipts. · If it did not meet the qualified export asset test, the distribution equals the fair market value of the assets that are not qualified export assets on the last day of the tax year. · If the IC-DISC did not meet either test, the distribution equals the sum of both amounts. Regulations section 1.992-3 explains how to figure the distribution. Interest on late distribution. If the IC-DISC makes a distribution after Form 1120-IC-DISC is due, interest must be paid to the United States Treasury. The interest charge is 41/2% of the distribution times the number of tax years that begin after the tax year to which the distribution relates until the date the IC-DISC made the distribution. If the IC-DISC must pay this interest, send the payment to the Internal Revenue Service Center where you filed Form 1120-IC-DISC within 30 days of making the distribution. On the payment, write the IC-DISC's name, address, and employer identification number; the tax year; and a statement that the payment represents the interest charge under Regulations section 1.992-3(c)(4).

Who Must File
The corporation must file Form 1120-IC-DISC if it elected, by filing Form 4876-A, to be treated as an IC-DISC and its election is in effect for the tax year. If the corporation is a former DISC or former IC-DISC, it must file Form 1120-IC-DISC in addition to any other return required. A former DISC is a corporation that was a DISC on or before December 31, 1984, but failed to qualify as a DISC after December 31, 1984, or did not elect to be an IC-DISC after 1984; and at the beginning of the current tax year, it had undistributed income that was previously taxed or it had accumulated DISC income. A former IC-DISC is a corporation that was an IC-DISC in an earlier year but did not qualify as an IC-DISC for the current

Other Forms and Statements That May Be Required
Shareholders who are foreign persons. The corporation should inform shareholders who are nonresident alien individuals or foreign corporations, trusts, or estates that if they have gains from disposal of stock in the IC-DISC, former DISC, or former IC-DISC, or distributions from accumulated IC-DISC income, including deemed distributions, they must treat these amounts as effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business conducted through a permanent establishment in the United States and derived from sources within the United States. Election to reduce basis under section 362(e)(2)(C). The transferor and transferee in certain section 351 transactions may make a joint election under section 362(e)(2)(C) to limit the transferor's basis in the stock received instead of the transferee's basis in the transferred property. The transferor and transferee may make the election by attaching the statement as provided in Notice 2005-70, 2005-41 I.R.B. 694, to their tax returns filed by the due date (including extensions) for the tax year in which the transaction occurred. If the transferor is a controlled foreign corporation, its controlling U.S. shareholder(s) can make the election. The common parent of a consolidated group can make the election for the group. Once made, the election is irrevocable. See section 362(e)(2)(C) and Notice 2005-70. Other forms and statements. See the Instructions for Form 1120 and Pub. 542 for a list of other forms and statements a corporation may need to file in addition to the forms and statements discussed throughout these instructions.

Accounting Methods
Figure taxable income using the method of accounting regularly used in keeping the IC-DISC's books and records. In all cases, the method used must clearly show taxable income. Permissible methods include cash, accrual, or any other method authorized by the Internal Revenue Code. Generally, the following rules apply. · An IC-DISC must use the accrual method of accounting if its average annual gross receipts exceed $5 million. However, see Nonaccrual experience method on page 6. · Unless it is a qualifying taxpayer or a qualifying small business taxpayer, an IC-DISC must use the accrual method for sales and purchases of inventory items. See Cost of Goods Sold on page 5. · A member of a controlled group may not use an accounting method that would distort any group member's income, including its own. For example, an IC-DISC acts as a commission agent for property sales by a related corporation that uses the accrual method and pays the IC-DISC its commission more than 2 months after the sale. In this case, the IC-DISC should not use the cash method of accounting because that method materially distorts its income. Change in accounting method. To change its method of accounting used to report taxable income, for income as a whole or for the treatment of any material item, the IC-DISC must file Form 3115, Application for Change in Accounting Method. See Form 3115 and Pub. 538, Accounting Periods and Methods, for more information on accounting methods.

These rules generally do not permit the related person to price at a loss. Under intercompany pricing, the IC-DISC's taxable income from the sale (regardless of the price actually charged) may not exceed the greatest of: 1. 4% of qualified export receipts on the IC-DISC's sale of the property plus 10% of the IC-DISC's export promotion expenses attributable to the receipts, 2. 50% of the IC-DISC's and the seller's combined taxable income from qualified export receipts on the property, derived from the IC-DISC's sale of the property plus 10% of the IC-DISC's export promotion expenses attributable to the receipts, or 3. Taxable income based on the sale price actually charged, provided that under section 482 the price actually charged clearly reflects the taxable income of the IC-DISC and the related person. Schedule P (Form 1120-IC-DISC), Intercompany Transfer Price or Commission, explains the intercompany pricing rules in more detail.

Item E--Total Assets

Note. If a change in address occurs after the return is filed, use Form 8822, Change of Address, to notify the IRS of the new address. · If the IC-DISC changed its name since it last filed a return, check the box for "Name change." Generally, an IC-DISC also must have amended its articles of incorporation and filed the amendment

with the state in which it was incorporated. · To correct an error on a Form 1120-IC-DISC already filed, file an amended Form 1120-IC-DISC and check the "Amended return" box. If the amended return changes the income or distributions of income to shareholders, an amended Schedule K (Form 1120-IC-DISC) must be filed with the amended Form 1120-IC-DISC and given to each shareholder. Write "AMENDED" across the top of the corrected Schedule K you give to each shareholder.

Schedule A
Cost of Goods Sold
Generally, inventories are required at the beginning and end of each tax year if the purchase or sale of merchandise is an income-producing factor. See Regulations section 1.471-1. However, if the IC-DISC is a qualifying taxpayer or a qualifying small business taxpayer, it may adopt or change its accounting method to account for inventoriable items in the same manner as materials and supplies that are not incidental. A qualifying taxpayer is a taxpayer that, for each prior tax year ending after December 16, 1998, has average annual gross receipts of $1 million or less for the 3 prior tax years. A qualifying small business taxpayer is a taxpayer (a) that, for each prior tax year ending on or after December 31, 2000, has average annual gross receipts of $10 million or less for the 3 prior tax years and (b) whose principal business activity is not an ineligible activity. Under this accounting method, inventory costs for merchandise purchased for resale are deductible in the year the merchandise is sold (but not before the year the IC-DISC paid for the merchandise, if it is also using the cash method). For additional guidance on this method of accounting for inventoriable items, see Pub. 538. Enter amounts paid for merchandise during the tax year on line 2. The amount the IC-DISC may deduct for the tax year is figured on line 8. All filers not using the cash method of accounting should see Section 263A uniform capitalization rules on page 8 before completing Schedule A. If the IC-DISC uses intercompany pricing rules (for purchases from a related supplier), use the transfer price figured in Part II of Schedule P (Form 1120-IC-DISC). If the IC-DISC acts as another person's commission agent on a sale, do not enter any amount in Schedule A for the sale. See Schedule P (Form 1120-IC-DISC).

Line 4. Additional Section 263A Costs
An entry is required on this line only for IC-DISCs that have elected a simplified method of accounting. For IC-DISCs that have elected the simplified production method, additional section 263A costs are generally those costs, other than interest, that were not capitalized under the IC-DISC's method of accounting immediately prior to the effective date of section 263A but are now required to be capitalized under section 263A. For details, see Regulations section 1.263A-2(b). For IC-DISCs that have elected the simplified resale method, additional section 263A costs are generally those costs incurred with respect to the following categories: · Off-site storage or warehousing. · Purchasing. · Handling, such as processing, assembling, repackaging, and transporting. · General and administrative costs (mixed service costs). For details, see Regulations section 1.263A-3(d). Enter on line 4 the balance of section 263A costs paid or incurred during the tax year not includible on lines 2, 3, and 5.

Question G(1)
For rules of stock attribution, see section 267(c). If the owner of the voting stock of the IC-DISC was an alien individual or a foreign corporation, partnership, trust, or estate, check the "Yes" box in the "Foreign owner" column and enter the name of the owner's country, in parentheses, in the address column. "Owner's country" for individuals is their country of residence; for other foreign entities, it is the country in which organized or otherwise created, or in which administered.

Taxable Income
An IC-DISC must figure its taxable income although it does not pay most taxes. An IC-DISC is exempt from the corporate income tax, alternative minimum tax, and accumulated earnings tax. An IC-DISC and its shareholders are not entitled to the possessions corporation tax credit (section 936). An IC-DISC may not claim the general business credit or the credit for fuel produced from a nonconventional source. In addition, these credits may not be passed through to shareholders of the corporation.

Line 5. Other Costs
Enter on line 5 any costs paid or incurred during the tax year not entered on lines 2 through 4.

Line 7. Inventory at End of Year
See Regulations sections 1.263A-1 through 1.263A-3 for details on figuring the amount of additional section 263A costs to be included in ending inventory. If the IC-DISC accounts for inventoriable items in the same manner as materials and supplies that are not incidental, enter on line 7 the portion of its merchandise purchased for resale that is included on line 6 and was not sold during the year.

Line 6a. Net Operating Loss Deduction
The net operating loss deduction is the amount of the net operating loss carryover and carryback that may be deducted in the tax year. See section 172 for details.

Lines 9a through 9f. Inventory Valuation Methods
Inventories may be valued at: · Cost; · Cost or market value (whichever is lower); or · Any other method approved by the IRS that conforms to the requirements of the applicable regulations cited below. However, if the IC-DISC is using the cash method of accounting, it is required to use cost. IC-DISCs that account for inventoriable items in the same manner as materials and supplies that are not incidental may currently deduct expenditures for direct labor and all indirect costs that would otherwise be included in inventory costs. The average cost (rolling average) method of valuing inventories generally does not conform to the requirements of

Line 7. Taxable Income
If the IC-DISC uses either the gross receipts method or combined taxable income method to compute the IC-DISC's taxable income attributable to any transactions involving products or product lines, attach Schedule P (Form 1120-IC-DISC). Show in detail the IC-DISC's taxable income attributable to each such transaction or group of transactions.

Line 1. Inventory at Beginning of Year
If the IC-DISC is changing its method of accounting for the current tax year, it must refigure last year's closing inventory using the new method of accounting and enter the result on line 1. If there is a difference between last year's closing inventory and the refigured amount, attach an explanation and take it into account when figuring the IC-DISC's section 481(a) adjustment (explained on page 7).

the regulations. See Rev. Rul. 71-234, 1971-1 C.B. 148. However, if an IC-DISC uses the average cost method for financial accounting purposes, there are two safe harbors under which this method will be deemed to clearly reflect income for federal income tax purposes. See Rev. Proc. 2008-43, 2008-30 I.R.B. 186, for details. IC-DISCs that use erroneous valuation methods must change to a method permitted for Federal income tax purposes. Use Form 3115 to make this change. On line 9a, check the method(s) used for valuing inventories. Under lower of cost or market, the term "market" (for normal goods) means the current bid price prevailing on the inventory valuation date for the particular merchandise in the volume usually purchased by the taxpayer. If section 263A applies to the taxpayer, the basic elements of cost must reflect the current bid price of all direct costs and all indirect costs properly allocable to goods on hand at the inventory date. Inventory may be valued below cost when the merchandise is unsalable at normal prices or unusable in the normal way because the goods are subnormal due to damage, imperfections, shopwear, etc., within the meaning of Regulations section 1.471-2(c). The goods may be valued at the current bona fide selling price, minus direct cost of disposition (but not less than scrap value) if such a price can be established. If this is the first year the Last-in, First-out (LIFO) inventory method was either adopted or extended to inventory goods not previously valued under the LIFO method provided in section 472, attach Form 970, Application To Use LIFO Inventory Method, or a statement with the information required by Form 970. Also check the LIFO box on line 9c. On line 9d, enter the amount or the percent of total closing inventories covered under section 472. Estimates are acceptable. If the IC-DISC changed or extended its inventory method to LIFO and had to write up the opening inventory to cost in the year of election, report the effect of the write-up as other income (on page 2, Schedule B, line 2j or 3f), proportionately over a 3-year period that begins with the year of the LIFO election (section 472(d)). For more information on inventory valuation methods, see Pub. 538.

2g and the nonqualifying interest on an attached schedule for line 3f. For gain from selling qualified export assets, attach a separate schedule in addition to the forms required for lines 2h and 2i. Nonaccrual experience method. Accrual method corporations are not required to accrue certain amounts to be received from the performance of certain services that, on the basis of their experience, will not be collected, if the corporation's average annual gross receipts for the 3 prior tax years does not exceed $5 million. This provision does not apply to any amount if interest is required to be paid on the amount or if there is any penalty for failure to timely pay the amount. For more information, see section 448(d)(5) and Regulations section 1.448-2. Corporations that qualify to use the nonaccrual experience method should attach a schedule showing total gross receipts, the amount not accrued as a result of the application of section 448(d)(5), and the net amount accrued. Enter the amount on the applicable line of Schedule B.

Commissions: Special Rule
Note. "United States," as used in the following instructions, includes Puerto Rico and U.S. possessions, as well as the 50 states and the District of Columbia. If the IC-DISC received commissions on selling or renting property or furnishing services, list in column (b) the gross receipts from the sales, rentals, or services on which the commissions arose, and in column (c), list the commissions earned. In column (d) report receipts from noncommissioned sales or rentals of property or furnishing of services, as well as all other receipts. For purposes of completing line 1a and line 1b, related purchasers are members of the same controlled group (as defined in section 993(a)(3)) as the IC-DISC. All other purchasers are unrelated. A qualified export sale or lease must meet a use test and a destination test in order to qualify. The use test applies at the time of the sale or lease. If the property is used predominantly outside the United States and the sale or lease is not for ultimate use in the United States, it is a qualified export sale or lease. Otherwise, if a reasonable person would believe that the property will be used in the United States, the sale or lease is not a qualified export sale or lease. For example, if property is sold to a foreign wholesaler and it is known in trade circles that the wholesaler, to a substantial extent, supplies the U.S. retail market, the sale would not be a qualified export sale, and the receipts would not be qualified export receipts. Regardless of where title or risk of loss shifts from the seller or lessor, the property must be delivered under one of

the following conditions to meet the destination test: 1. Within the United States to a carrier or freight forwarder for ultimate delivery outside the United States to a buyer or lessee. 2. Within the United States to a buyer or lessee who, within 1 year of the sale or lease, delivers it outside the United States or delivers it to another person for ultimate delivery outside the United States. 3. Within or outside the United States to an IC-DISC that is not a member of the same controlled group (as defined in section 993(a)(3)) as the seller or lessor. 4. Outside the United States by means of the seller's delivery vehicle (ship, plane, etc.). 5. Outside the United States to a buyer or lessee at a storage or assembly site if the property was previously shipped from the United States by the seller or lessor. 6. Outside the United States to a purchaser or lessee if the property was previously shipped by the seller or lessor from the United States and if the property is located outside the United States pursuant to a prior lease by the seller or lessor, and either (a) the prior lease terminated at the expiration of its term (or by the action of the prior lessee acting alone), (b) the sale occurred or the term of the subsequent lease began after the time at which the term of the prior lease would have expired, or (c) the lessee under the subsequent lease is not a related person (a member of the same controlled group as defined in section 993(a)(3) or a relationship that would result in a disallowance of losses under section 267 or section 707(b)) immediately before or after the lease with respect to the lessor, and the prior lease was terminated by the action of the lessor (acting alone or together with the lessee).

The IC-DISC may have to make an adjustment under section 481(a) to prevent amounts of income or expense from being duplicated or omitted. This section 481(a) adjustment period is generally 1 year for a net negative adjustment and 4 years for a net positive adjustment. However, an IC-DISC may elect to use a 1-year adjustment period if the net section 481(a) adjustment for the change is less than $25,000. The IC-DISC must complete the appropriate lines of Form 3115 to make the election. Include any net positive section 481(a) adjustment on page 2, Schedule B, line 2j or 3f (depending on whether the inventory, when sold, will generate qualified export receipts). If the net section 481(a) adjustment is negative, report it on page 3, Schedule E, line 2g. Line 3b. Enter receipts from selling products subsidized under a U.S. program if they have been designated as excluded receipts.

Line 3c. Enter receipts from selling or leasing property or services for use by any part of the U.S. Government if law or regulations require U.S. products or services to be used. Line 3d.

IC-DISCs subject to the section 263A uniform capitalization rules are required to capitalize: 1. Direct costs and 2. An allocable part of most indirect costs (including taxes) that (a) benefit the assets produced or acquired for resale or (b) are incurred by reason of the performance of production or resale activities. For inventory, some of the indirect expenses that must be capitalized are: · Administration expenses, · Taxes, · Depreciation, · Insurance, · Compensation paid to officers attributable to services, · Rework labor, and · Contributions to pension, stock bonus, and certain profit-sharing, annuity, or deferred compensation plans. Regulations section 1.263A-1(e)(3) specifies other indirect costs that relate to production or resale activities that must be capitalized and those that may be currently deductible. Interest expense paid or incurred during the production period of designated property must be capitalized and is governed by special rules. For more details, see Regulations sections 1.263A-8 through 1.263A-15. The costs required to be capitalized under section 263A are not deductible until the property (to which the costs relate) is sold, used, or otherwise disposed of by the corporation. Exceptions. Section 263A does not apply to: · Personal property acquired for resale if the IC-DISC's average annual gross receipts for the 3 prior tax years were $10 million or less. · Inventoriable items accounted for in the same manner as materials and supplies that are not incidental.

Line 2. Recognized Gain on Section 995(b)(1)(B) Property
Enter gain recognized during the tax year on the sale or exchange of property, other than property which in the hands of the IC-DISC was a qualified export asset, previously transferred to the IC-DISC in a transaction in which the transferor realized gain but did not recognize the gain in whole or in part. See section 995(b)(1)(B). Show the computation of the gain on a separate schedule. Include no more of the IC-DISC's gain than the amount of gain the transferor did not recognize on the earlier transfer.

Line 11. Illegal Bribes, etc.
An IC-DISC is deemed to distribute the amount of any illegal payments, such as bribes or kickbacks, that it pays, directly or indirectly, to government officials, employees, or agents (section 995(b)(1)(F)(iii)).

Line 1. Export Receipts
If there were no commission sales, leases, rentals, or services for the tax year, enter on line 1, Part II, the total of lines 1c and 2k, column (e), Schedule B. If there were commission sales, leases, rentals, or services for the tax year, the total qualified export receipts to be entered on line 1, Part II, are figured as follows (section 993(f)):
1. Add lines 1c and 2k, column (b), Schedule B . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2. Add lines 1c and 2k, column (d), Schedule B . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3. Add lines 1 and 2. Enter on line 1, Part II, Schedule J . . . . . . . .

Line 14. Earnings and Profits
Attach a computation showing the earnings and profits for the tax year. See section 312 for rules on figuring earnings and profits for the purpose of the section 995(b)(1) limitation.

Line 17. Foreign Investment Attributable to Producer Loans
Line 17a. For shareholders other than C corporations. To figure the amount for line 17a, attach a computation showing (1) the IC-DISC's foreign investment in producer's loans during the tax year; (2) accumulated earnings and profits (including earnings and profits for the current tax year) minus the amount on line 15, Part I; and (3) accumulated IC-DISC income. Enter the smallest of these amounts (but not less than zero) on line 17a. Line 17b. For C corporation shareholders. To figure the amount for line 17b, attach a computation showing (1) the IC-DISC's foreign investment in producer's loans during the tax year; (2) accumulated earnings and profits (including earnings and profits for the current tax year) minus the amount on line 16, Part I; and (3) accumulated IC-DISC income. Enter the smallest of these amounts (but not less than zero) on line 17b. For purposes of lines 17a and 17b, foreign investment in producer's loans is the smallest of (1) the net increase in foreign assets by members of the controlled group (defined in section 993(a)(3)) to which the IC-DISC belongs; (2) the actual foreign investment by the group's domestic members; or (3) the IC-DISC's outstanding producer's loans to members of the controlled group. Net increase in foreign assets and actual foreign investment are defined in sections 995(d)(2) and (3). See Regulations section 1.995-5 for additional information on computing foreign investment attributable to producer's loans. Lines 20 and 21. The percentages on lines 20 and 21 must add up to 100%. Line 22. Allocate the line 22 amount to shareholders that are individuals,

Line 3. Controlled Group Allocation
If the IC-DISC is a member of a controlled group (as defined in section 993(a)(3)) that includes more than one IC-DISC, only one $10 million limit is allowed to the group. If an allocation is required, a statement showing each member's portion of the $10 million limit must be attached to Form 1120-IC-DISC. See Proposed Regulations section 1.995-8(f) for details.

Line 3. Recognized Gain on Section 995(b)(1)(C) Property
Enter gain recognized on the sale or exchange of property described in section 995(b)(1)(C). Show the computation of the gain on a separate schedule. Do not include any gain included in the computation of line 2. Include only the amount of the IC-DISC's gain that the transferor did not recognize on the earlier transfer and that would have been treated as ordinary income if the property had been sold or exchanged rather than transferred to the IC-DISC. Do not include gain on the sale or exchange of IC-DISC stock-in-trade or other property that either would be included in inventory if on hand at the end of the tax year or is held primarily for sale in the normal course of business.

Lines 4 and 5. Proration of $10 Million Limit
The $10 million limit (or the controlled group member's share) is prorated on a daily basis. Thus, for example, if, for its 2007 calendar tax year, an IC-DISC has a short tax year of 73 days, and it is not a member of a controlled group, the limit that would be entered on line 5 of Part II is $2,000,000 (73/365 times $10 million).

Line 7. Taxable Income
Enter the taxable income attributable to line 6, qualified export receipts. The IC-DISC may select the qualified export receipts to which the line 5 limitation is allocated. See Proposed Regulations section 1.995-8 for details on determining the IC-DISC's taxable income attributable to qualified export receipts in excess of the $10 million amount. Special rules are provided for allocating the taxable income attributable to any related and subsidiary services, and for the ratable allocation of the taxable income attributable to the first transaction selected by the IC-DISC that exceeds the $10 million amount. Deductions must be allocated and apportioned according to the rules of Regulations section 1.861-8. The selection of the excess receipts by the IC-DISC is intended to permit the IC-DISC to allocate the $10 million

Line 4. Income Attributable to Military Property
Enter 50% of taxable income attributable to military property (section 995(b)(1)(D)). Show the computation of this income. To figure taxable income attributable to military property, use the gross income attributable to military property for the year and the deductions properly allocated to that income. See Regulations section 1.995-6.

Line 9. Deemed Distributions to C Corporations
Line 9 provides for the computation of the one-seventeenth deemed distribution of section 995(b)(1)(F)(i). Line 9 only applies to shareholders of the IC-DISC that are C corporations.

limitation to the qualified export receipts of those transactions occurring during the tax year that permit the greatest amount of taxable income to be allocated to the IC-DISC under the intercompany pricing rules of section 994. To avoid double counting of the deemed distribution, if an amount of taxable income for the tax year attributable to excess qualified export receipts is also deemed distributed under either line 1, 2, 3, or 4 of Part I, such amount of taxable income is only includible on that line of Part I, and must be subtracted from the amount otherwise reportable on line 7 of Part II and carried to line 5 of Part I. See Proposed Regulations section 1.995-8(d). After filing the IC-DISC's current year tax return, the allocation of the $10 million limitation and the computation of the line 7 deemed distribution may be changed by filing an amended Form 1120-IC-DISC only under the conditions specified in Proposed Regulations section 1.995-8(b)(1).

pre-1985 DISC income and identify it as such. Do not include distributions of pre-1985 DISC income that are made under section 995(b)(2) because of prior year revocations or disqualifications.

prior revocation of the DISC election or disqualification of the DISC. For more details on these distributions, see Temporary Regulations section 1.921-1T(a)(7).

Part V--Deferred DISC Income Under Section 995(f)(3)
In general, deferred DISC income is: 1. Accumulated IC-DISC income (for periods after 1984) of the IC-DISC as of the close of the computation year, over 2. The amount of distributions-in-excess-of-income for the tax year of the IC-DISC following the computation year. For purposes of item 2 above, distributions-in-excess-of-income means the excess (if any) of: · Actual distributions to shareholders out of accumulated IC-DISC income, over · The amount of IC-DISC income (as defined in section 996(f)(1)) for the tax year following the computation year. For purposes of items 1 and 2 above, see section 995(f) and Proposed Regulations section 1.995(f)-1 for a definition of computation year, examples, and other details on figuring deferred DISC income. The amount on line 3, Part V, is allocated to each shareholder on line 10, Part III, of Schedule K (Form 1120-IC-DISC). Shareholders of an IC-DISC must file Form 8404 if the IC-DISC reports deferred DISC income on line 10, Part III of Schedule K.

Line 13. Accumulated IC-DISC Income
Accumulated IC-DISC income (for periods after 1984) is accounted for on line 13 of Schedule L. The balance of this account is used in figuring deferred DISC income in Part V of Schedule J.

Schedule N
Export Gross Receipts of the IC-DISC and Related U.S. Persons
Line 1. Product Code and Percentage
Enter in line 1a the code number and percentage of total export gross receipts (defined below), for the product or service that accounts for the largest portion of the IC-DISC's export gross receipts. The product codes are on page 14 of these instructions. On line 1b enter the same information for the IC-DISC's next largest product or service. Example: An IC-DISC has export gross receipts of $10 million. Selling agricultural chemicals accounts for $4.5 million (45%) of that amount, which is the IC-DISC's largest product or service. The IC-DISC should enter "287" (the product code for agricultural chemicals) and "45%" in line 1a. Selling industrial chemicals accounts for $2 million (20% of the $10 million total) and is the IC-DISC's second largest product or service. The IC-DISC should enter "281" (the product code for industrial inorganic and organic chemicals) and "20%" in line 1b.

Part III--Deemed Distributions Under Section 995(b)(2)
If the corporation is a former DISC or a former IC-DISC that revoked IC-DISC status or lost IC-DISC status for failure to satisfy one or more of the conditions specified in section 992(a)(1) for the current tax year, each shareholder is deemed to have received a distribution taxable as a dividend on the last day of the current tax year. The deemed distribution equals the shareholder's prorated share of the DISC's or IC-DISC's income accumulated during the years just before DISC or IC-DISC status ended. The shareholder will be deemed to receive the distribution in equal parts on the last day of each of the 10 tax years of the corporation following the year of the termination or disqualification of the IC-DISC (but in no case over more than twice the number of years the corporation was a DISC or IC-DISC).

Schedule K
Shareholder's Statement of IC-DISC Distributions
Attach a separate Copy A, Schedule K (Form 1120-IC-DISC), to Form 1120-IC-DISC for each shareholder who received an actual or deemed distribution during the tax year or to whom the corporation reported deferred DISC income for the tax year.
