Question 1 :

During planning, Nora Sinclair at Juniper Ledger CPAs sees Harbor Crest Holdings LLC account 4821 with a January 31, 2026 preliminary 1099 package and a February 18, 2026 revised 24-page package; what should control intake?

Archive the January package, use the February 18 revised package, and note any missing attachments from that version.

Merge both packages into one source file, use the higher totals, and let review resolve differences later.

Keep the January package active until the client explains the revision, and postpone all brokerage follow-up.

Leave both packages in scope, tag each as current, and let prep choose the one that ties best.

Question 2 :

Crestline Ledger reviews Heather Bay Rentals LLC and Natalie Pierce's 2025 file and finds a prior-year rental schedule copied forward, but the current-year owner statement shows the property was vacant all year and only includes insurance reimbursements and owner funding. What is the best classification response?

Keep prior-year rental income because the property was once active.

Book the insurance reimbursements and owner funding as current rent.

Remove current rental income unless there is actual rent support.

Treat the vacant property activity as wage income from property management.

Question 3 :

The review file for Maple Crest Manufacturing, Inc. at Harbor Quill Tax Studio shows a shareholder loan payable to Owen Price of $60,000, but the general ledger also shows $35,000 of principal repayments during 2025 before a $50,000 current-year loss; why does this matter most?

It matters only for at-risk purposes because debt basis is fixed once the loan is originated.

Repayments can reduce Owen's debt basis before the loss is tested, lowering the deductible amount.

Repayments affect QBI only and do not change the basis limitation.

Repayments are ignored unless stock basis is already zero at year-end.

Question 5 :

In the binder for Larkstone Capital LLC at Timberline Hollow Tax, Rebecca Shaw finds a 2025 apportionment schedule listing Georgia and North Carolina activity while the draft individual return includes only the resident state; what is the best review note?

Keep the draft unchanged because entity apportionment never affects owner filing obligations.

Add only Georgia because the first state on the schedule is usually the controlling state.

Expand the owner state map and test whether both listed states create individual filing exposure.

Remove the apportionment schedule because entity-level data is not relevant to SALT review.
