Aston's basis in AB was \$40,000, and he received distributions of \$5,000 during the year. What is Aston's share of AB's ordinary income?
The question asks about Aston’s share of ordinary income. While Aston receives an equal share of the long-term capital gain, it will be taxed as a capital gain, not ordinary income. Distributions (especially non-liquidating) are generally not taxable. This leaves only Aston’s equal share of the \$20,000 ordinary income, or \$10,000.
