PRIMA DONNA PARTNERSHIP
The Prima Donna Partnership (FEI 92-4765432) was formed ten years ago as a general
partnership to custom tailor women’s clothing. Prima Donna is located at 123 Flamingo
Drive in Haines City, MO 54321. Mariana Prima manages the business and has a 45%
capital and profits interest. Her address is 709 Brumby Way, Haines City, MO 54321.
Donna Hart owns the remaining 55% interest but is not active in the business. Her
address is 807 Ninth Avenue Haines City, MO 54321. The partnership values its business
using the cost method and did not change the method used during the current year.
The partnership uses the accrual method of accounting. Because of its simplicity the
partnership is not subject to partnership audit procedures. The partnership has no
foreign partners, no foreign transactions, no interest in foreign trusts, and no foreign
bank accounts. This partnership is neither a tax shelter nor a publicly traded
partnership. No changes in ownership of partnership interest occurred during the
current year.
The partnership made cash distributions of $202,500 and $247,500 to Prima and Hart,
respectively, on December 30, 2015. It made no other cash or property distributions
during the year. Assume that the business qualifies as a US production activity and that
its qualified production activity income is $560,000. As an eligible small pass-though
partnership, uses the small business simplified overall method for reporting these
activities.
