179 Carryover when incorporating xtrakmo 11-12-2007

In mid-2007, we incorporated our general partnership, and
all assets and liabilities were assumed by the corporation
(with S corporation election). How do we account for our
section 179 carryover from the partnership 2006 return?

Many thanks.
Xavier

Both partnerships & S corps are flow thru entities which do
not claim sec 179 deductions. They are passed thru to the
partners & shareholders who deduct it, subject to their own
limitations.

If the 179 gross income test is failed at the partnership level, there
is no flow through to the partners. Instead, there is a 179 carry over
at the partnership level.
