For all we know the company was funded solely through stock and equity. If the net worth is positive and there is little to no debt, what would filing for bankruptcy accomplish? -- David M.

For the section 382 limitation to not apply in bankruptcy,> §382 doesn't apply. control of the company must still end up with the pre- bankruptcy shareholders and the pre-bankruptcy creditors. It works about the same way as the normal 382 limits, but you get to count the creditors who end up with part of the company in tbe bankruptcy as part of the pre-bankruptcy control group. It would be hard to use these rules as a way to sell the company off for value other than in pretty limited circumstances.

It's a > start-up with a lot of expenses, but no sales. It's probably not an NOL; it's probably start-up expenses, which are not deductible but must be capitalized. The corporation can elect on a timely filed return to amortize them over 60 months (IRC Sec. 195, I think). Otherwise they are not deductible until the corporation liquidates.
