FAQ
Accumulated E&P was taxed at the C corporation level and will be taxed again as a dividend to recipient S corporation shareholders when distributed. S corporations that have accumulated E&P are required to maintain an accumulated adjustments account (“AAA”).
The IRC §1368(e)(3) election allows for an S corporation with E&P to quickly distribute its entire E&P.
Tax Incentives: The S Corporation ESOP Tax Shield For example, if an ESOP owns 50% of an S corporation, no tax is due on that 50% of the company's income; if the ESOP owns 100%, there is no tax at all (at the federal and, usually, the state level as well).
If the S Corporation contributes to the HSA on behalf of a greater than 2% owner, these contributions are treated as income and added to the shareholder's wages. They are reported in boxes 1 and 16 of the form W-2 as wages. These wages are not subject to FICA or Medicare taxes.
The Accumulated Adjustments Account (AAA) tracks your S Corporation's gross income, expenses, and distributions. This account is found on Form 1120-S on Schedule M-2. The goal of the Accumulated Adjustment account is to determine if you took any taxable distributions during the year.

Current E&P represents the current economic income computed on an annual basis. Accumulated E&P represents the sum of each year's current E&P reduced by distributions.
Your S corporation handles profits differently from traditional corporations. Here's what makes it special: Rather than keeping a standard retained earnings account, S corporations use something called an Accumulated Adjustments Account (AAA) to track profits that haven't been distributed to shareholders.
