I am a 1/3 partner in a S corp. We started it 15 years ago with the
objective to rent equipment. We each put in $13,000 to buy the
equipment. It has only made either very small gains or losses over the
years (+/- $200). The partners have drifted apart and we decided to sell
the equipment. So late last year one of the partners sold off the
equipment.

I received a K-1 showing a line 9 Net section 1231 gain of $22,000. The
proceeds from the sale are sitting in a money market account.

What are the tax implications? It would seem the $22,000 gets reported
on schedule D and will be income to me for 2007. Next the corporation
will be dissolved. How will that be reflected this year?

Probably some interest income, administrative expenses and distributions to
the shareholders.
