61 Deduction vs. Credit for Foreign Taxes 1. A deduction for foreign tax paid or accrued is a subtraction from income that decreases income that is otherwise subject to U.S. Federal tax. 2. A credit for foreign tax paid or accrued is a dollar for dollar offset against the U.S. Federal tax liability on the foreign source taxable income All Rights Reserved Aronson LLC

63 Deduction vs. Credit for Foreign Taxes - U.S. Individuals Why should individuals choose the credit? Foreign tax credit is a dollar for dollar reduction of U.S. Federal income tax liability on foreign source taxable income Foreign tax credit is not allowed to offset U.S. Federal tax liability on U.S. source taxable income Deduction of foreign tax only decreases income subject to U.S. Federal tax The foreign income tax deduction for individuals is Schedule A itemized deduction Individuals can choose to take the credit even if they do not claim Schedule A itemized deductions. The credit is allowed with the standard deduction. With the credit, foreign tax that exceeds the limit are first carried back one year and then carried forward 10 years. Individuals claim the foreign tax credit by filing Form 1116 with U.S. Federal Form 1040 individual income tax return All Rights Reserved Aronson LLC
64 Deduction vs. Credit for Foreign Taxes - U.S. Individuals Why should individuals choose the credit? IRS Publication 514 Example For 2015, you and your spouse have adjusted gross income of $80,300, including $20,000 of dividend income from foreign sources. None of the dividends are qualified dividends. You file a joint return and can claim two $4,000 exemptions. You had to pay $1,900 in foreign income taxes on the dividend income. If you take the foreign taxes as an itemized deduction, your total itemized deductions are $15,000. Your taxable income then is $57,300 and your tax is $7,676. If you take the credit instead, your itemized deductions are only $13,100. Your taxable income then is $59,200 and your tax before the credit is $7,961. After the credit, however, your tax is only $6,061. Therefore, your tax is $1,615 lower ($7,676 $6,061) by taking the credit All Rights Reserved Aronson LLC
65 Deduction vs. Credit for Foreign Taxes U.S. Individuals Making or changing the individual s choice between foreign tax deduction or credit Make or change the choice to claim a foreign tax deduction or credit at any time within 10 years from the original due date of the U.S. Federal Form 1040 individual income tax return (not including extensions) filed for the tax year in which the foreign tax was paid. Make or change the choice on the U.S. Federal Form 1040 individual income tax return (or on an amended return) for the year the choice is to be effective All Rights Reserved Aronson LLC

You were timely in both filing your returns and paying your U.S. tax liability. In February 2015, you file an amended return for tax year 2004 choosing to take a credit for your 2004 foreign taxes because you now realize that the credit is more advantageous than the deduction for that year. Because the regular due date of your 2004 return was April 15, 2005, this choice is timely (within 10 years) All Rights Reserved Aronson LLC
67 Deduction vs. Credit for Foreign Taxes U.S. Individuals IRS Publication 514 FTC for Individuals - Example of Individual making or changing choice (Part II) Because there is a limit on the credit for your 2004 foreign tax, you have unused 2004 foreign taxes. Ordinarily, you first carry back unused foreign taxes arising in 2004 to 2003, and claim them as a credit in, the preceding tax year. If you are unable to claim all of them in that year, you carry them forward to the 10 years following the year in which they arose. Because you originally chose to deduct your foreign taxes and the 10 year period for changing the choice for 2003 has passed, you cannot change your choice and carry the unused 2004 foreign taxes back to tax year Because the 10 year periods for changing the choice have not passed for your 2005 through 2014 income tax returns, you can still choose to claim the credit for those years and carry forward any unused 2004 foreign taxes. However, you must reduce the unused 2004 foreign taxes that you carry forward by the amount that would have been allowed as a carryback if you had timely carried back the foreign tax to tax year All Rights Reserved Aronson LLC

Separate Limit Income - Must calculate the limit separately for each of the following categories of income. In figuring the separate limits, combine the income (and losses) in each category from all foreign sources and then apply the limit. 1. Passive category income including high taxed income 2. General category income 3. Section 901(j) income from activities in sanctioned countries 4. Certain income re-sourced by treaty 5. Any lump-sum distribution from an employer benefit plan for which the special averaging treatment is used to determine the tax FTC limit = Foreign source taxable income in separate basket Worldwide taxable income x U.S. Federal tax (before foreign tax credit) 2016 All Rights Reserved Aronson LLC
79 Limitations, Carrybacks, Carryovers and Recalculations Foreign Losses - If there is a foreign loss when figuring your taxable income in a separate limit income category and there is income in one or more of the other separate categories, first reduce the income in these other categories by the loss before reducing income from U.S. sources. See IRS Publication 514. The amount of your taxable income (or loss) in a separate category is determined after any adjustments you make to your foreign source qualified dividends or your foreign source capital gains (losses). Example There is $10,000 of passive category income and a loss of $5,000 in the general category income basket. You must use the $5,000 loss to offset $5,000 of passive category income. How to allocate You must allocate foreign losses among the separate limit income categories in the same proportion as each category's income bears to total foreign source income. Example There is a $2,000 loss that is general category income, $3,000 of passive category income, and $2,000 of income re-sourced by treaty. You must allocate the $2,000 loss to the income in the other separate categories. 60% ($3,000/$5,000) of the $2,000 loss (or $1,200) reduces passive category income and 40% ($2,000/$5,000) or $800 reduces the income re-sourced by treaty. Loss more than foreign income - If you have a loss remaining after reducing the income in other separate limit categories, use the remaining loss to reduce U.S. source income. For this purpose, the amount of your U.S. source income is your taxable income from U.S. sources increased by the amount of capital losses from U.S. sources that reduced foreign source capital gains as part of a U.S. capital loss adjustment. When you use a foreign loss to offset U.S. source income, you must recapture the loss. U.S. Losses - Allocate any net loss from sources in the United States among the different categories of foreign income after allocating all foreign losses as described earlier, and before any adjustments. The amount of your net loss from sources in the United States is equal to the excess of (1) your foreign source taxable income in all of your separate categories in the aggregate, after taking into account any adjustments for qualified dividends and adjustments to foreign source capital gains and losses over (2) the amount of taxable income you enter on Form 1116, line All Rights Reserved Aronson LLC
80 Limitations, Carrybacks, Carryovers and Recalculations Recapture of Prior Year Overall Foreign Loss (OFL) Accounts Overall foreign loss (OFL) - You have an overall foreign loss if your gross income from foreign sources for a tax year is less than the sum of your expenses, losses, or other deductions that you allocated and apportioned to foreign income under the rules explained. If you have only losses in your separate limit categories, or if you have a loss remaining after allocating your foreign losses to other separate categories, you have an overall foreign loss. If you use this loss to offset U.S. source income (resulting in a reduction of your U.S. tax liability), you must recapture your loss in each succeeding year in which you have taxable income from foreign sources in the same separate limit category. You must recapture the overall loss regardless of whether you chose to claim the foreign tax credit for the loss year. You recapture the loss by treating part of your taxable income from foreign sources in a later year as U.S. source income. In addition, if, in a later year, you sell or otherwise dispose of property used in your foreign trade or business, you may have to recognize gain and treat it as U.S. source income, even if the disposition would otherwise be nontaxable. The amount you treat as U.S. source income reduces the foreign source income, and therefore reduces the foreign tax credit limit. You must establish separate accounts for each type of foreign loss that you sustain. The balances in these accounts are the overall foreign loss subject to recapture. Reduce these balances at the end of each tax year by the loss that you recaptured. You must attach a statement to your Form 1116 or Form 1118 to report the balances (if any) in your overall foreign loss accounts. See IRS Publication All Rights Reserved Aronson LLC
81 Limitations, Carrybacks, Carryovers and Recalculations OFL Recapture - If you have an overall foreign loss for any tax year and use the loss to offset U.S. source income, part of your foreign source taxable income (in the same separate limit category as the loss) for each succeeding year is treated as U.S. source taxable income. The part that is treated as U.S. source taxable income is the smaller of the following. 1. The total amount of maximum potential recapture in all overall foreign loss accounts. The maximum potential recapture in any account for a category is the lesser of: a. The current year taxable income from foreign sources in that category (the amount from Form 1116, line 15, less any adjustment for allocation of foreign losses and U.S. losses for that category, discussed earlier); or b. The balance in the overall foreign loss account for that category % (or more, if you choose) of your total taxable income from foreign sources. Deduction for foreign taxes - You must recapture part (or all, if applicable) of an overall foreign loss in tax years in which you deduct, rather than credit, your foreign taxes. You recapture the lesser of: 1. The balance in the applicable overall foreign loss account, or 2. The foreign source taxable income of the same separate limit category that resulted in the overall foreign loss minus the foreign taxes imposed on that income. See IRS Publication All Rights Reserved Aronson LLC
82 Limitations, Carrybacks, Carryovers and Recalculations Recapture of Separate Limitation Loss Accounts - If in a prior tax year, you reduced your foreign taxable income in the separate limit category by a pro rata share of a loss from another category, you must recharacterize in the current year all or part of any income you receive in the current year in that loss category. If you have separate limitation loss accounts in the loss category relating to more than one other category and the total balances in those loss accounts exceed the income you receive in the current year in the loss category, then income in the loss category is recharacterized as income in those other categories in proportion to the balances of the separate limitation loss accounts for those other categories. You recharacterize the income by: 1. Increasing foreign taxable income (adjusted by certain adjustments) for each of the separate categories (other than the loss category) previously reduced by any separate limitation loss, and 2. Decreasing foreign taxable income (adjusted by certain adjustments) for the loss category by the amount of recharacterized income. See IRS Publication All Rights Reserved Aronson LLC
83 Limitations, Carrybacks, Carryovers and Recalculations Recapture of Overall Domestic Loss Accounts - If you have an overall domestic loss for any tax year beginning after 2006, you create, or increase the balance in, an overall domestic loss account and you must recharacterize a portion of your U.S. source taxable income as foreign source taxable income in succeeding years for purposes of the foreign tax credit. The part that is treated as foreign source taxable income for the tax year is the smaller of: 1. The total balance in your overall domestic loss account in each separate category (less amounts recaptured in earlier years), or 2. 50% of your U.S. source taxable income for the tax year. You must establish and maintain separate overall domestic loss accounts for each separate category in which foreign source income is offset by the domestic loss. The balance in each overall domestic loss account is the amount of the overall domestic loss subject to recapture. The recharacterized income is allocated among and increases foreign source income in separate categories in proportion to the balances of the overall domestic loss accounts for those separate categories. See IRS Publication All Rights Reserved Aronson LLC
84 Limitations, Carrybacks, Carryovers and Recalculations U.S. Treas. Reg. Section 1.904(g)-3 Ordering Rules 1. Allocate net operating losses and net capital loss carryovers 2. Make I.R.C. Section 904(b) adjustments 3. Allocate separate limitation losses 4. Allocate U.S. source losses 5. Recapture overall foreign losses 6. Recapture separate limitation losses 7. Recapture overall domestic losses 2016 All Rights Reserved Aronson LLC
85 Limitations, Carrybacks, Carryovers and Recalculations Carryback and Carryover - If because of the limit on the credit, you cannot use the full amount of qualified foreign taxes paid or accrued in the tax year, you are allowed a 1-year carryback (not elective) and then a 10-year carryover of the unused foreign taxes. This means that you treat the unused foreign tax of a tax year as though the tax were paid or accrued in your first preceding and 10 succeeding tax years up to the amount of any excess limit in those years. A period of less than 12 months for which you make a return is considered a tax year. The unused foreign tax in each category is the amount by which the qualified taxes paid or accrued are more than the limit for that category. The excess limit in each category is the amount by which the limit is more than the qualified taxes paid or accrued for that category. Figure your carrybacks or carryovers separately for each separate limit income category. See IRS Publication All Rights Reserved Aronson LLC
86 Limitations, Carrybacks, Carryovers and Recalculations Foreign Tax Redeterminations Must amend U.S. Federal income tax return if you claim a foreign tax credit and then receive a refund of the credited taxes in a later year Must reduce the credited taxes by the amount refunded Penalties apply for the failure to amend to adjust 2016 All Rights Reserved Aronson LLC
87 Limitations, Carrybacks, Carryovers and Recalculations Foreign Tax Redetermination - A foreign tax redetermination is any change in your foreign tax liability that may affect your U.S. foreign tax credit claimed. The year in which to claim the credit remains the year to which the foreign taxes paid or accrued relate, even if the change in foreign tax liability occurs in a later year. If a foreign tax redetermination occurs, a redetermination of your U.S. tax liability is required if any of the following conditions apply. 1. The accrued taxes when paid differ from the amounts claimed as a credit. 2. The accrued taxes you claimed as a credit in one tax year are not paid within 2 years after the end of that tax year. If this applies to you, you must reduce the credit previously claimed by the amount of the unpaid taxes. You will not be allowed a credit for the unpaid taxes until you pay them. When you pay the accrued taxes, a new foreign tax redetermination occurs and you must translate the taxes into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate as of the date they were paid. The foreign tax credit is allowed for the year to which the foreign tax relates. 3. The foreign taxes you paid are refunded in whole or in part. For taxes taken into account when accrued but translated into dollars on the date of payment, the dollar value of the accrued tax differs from the dollar value of the tax paid because of fluctuations in the exchange rate between the date of accrual and the date of payment. However, no redetermination is required if the change in foreign tax liability for each foreign country is solely attributable to exchange rate fluctuations and is less than the smaller of: 1. $10,000, or 2. 2% of the total dollar amount of the foreign tax initially accrued for that foreign country for the U.S. tax year. In this case, you must adjust your U.S. tax in the tax year in which the accrued foreign taxes are paid. See IRS Publication All Rights Reserved Aronson LLC
