On January 1, 2020, H and N formed a limited partnership to acquire and operate a rental apartment building. N, the limited partner, contributed $360 and H, the general partner, contributed $40. The partnership obtained a nonrecourse loan from an unrelated financial institution for $3,100 and purchased a building for $3,500 on leased land. The loan is secured by the building. The loan requires interest to be paid currently, but does not require any principal payments for 25 years. The building is depreciable over 10 years at the rate of $350 per year. The partnership agreement satisfies the first two requirements of the basic test for economic effect (i.e., the capital account and liquidation requirements). N has no obligation to make up any deficit in her capital account. The partnership agreement, however, does have a QIO provision. It also has a "minimum gain chargeback" provision as described in 1.704–2(f). The partners agree that nonrecourse deductions will be shared equally. Finally, the agreement provides that all items of income, deduction and loss, other than nonrecourse deductions, will be allocated 90% to N and 10% to H until the first time that income and gain exceed losses taken in prior years. Thereafter, all items of income, gain, and loss will be allocated equally between the partners. For the taxable years 2020–2022, the partnership has $300 of gross rental income and $300 of out of pocket expenses ($230 in interest and $70 in operating expenses). As a result of the depreciation deduction on the building, the partnership has an annual net tax loss of $350 each year. During this period, the partnership makes no distributions. The partnership's initial balance sheet is as follows: Assets Liabilities & Capital Basis/Book Building $3,500 Mortgage $3,100 Capital Accounts Tax/Book H $ 40 N 360 $400

In not less than 3 pages (double spaced), discuss the factors that are considered in determining whether an arrangement is a "partnership" for federal income tax purposes. Your discussion should include a comprehensive analysis of the authority (court decisions, Internal Revenue Code, Treasury Regulations, and IRS pronouncements, i.e., Revenue Rulings) that pertain to this issue. The discussion should not focus on the characteristics of an "association" taxable as a corporation and the resulting classification of the entity as a partnership or a corporation under the Kinter Regulations, as those Regulations have been replaced by the new "check the box regulations" under Treasury Regulation 301.7701. The discussion should focus on whether an arrangement between persons creates the existence of a partnership for federal income tax purposes.
