My client, a C Corp, was audited by the IRS and the RA disallowed some items totaling around $150K and made them constructive dividends to the three shareholders. On the individual returns he assessed tax on the $150K on each return instead of assessing tax on $50K on each return. Am I missing something? Shouldn't each shareholder pay tax on $50K? The audit report says that the $150K constructive dividend is being assigned individually and severally to each shareholder. I really appreciate everyones help and advice. Thanks
