Free IRS Enrolled Agent SEE Part 2 (Businesses) Business Entities and Considerations Practice Questions
Business Entities and Considerations on the IRS SEE Part 2 covers entity formation and classification (sole proprietorship, partnership, C corporation, S corporation, LLC), partner / shareholder basis rules, distributions, and the consequences of liquidation, redemption, and §351 / §721 contributions.
Which IRS form is filed to elect S corporation status under §1362(a)?
🎉
Correct Answer: B
Solution
§1362(a) and the Form 2553 instructions require the election to be made by filing Form 2553, Election by a Small Business Corporation, signed by all shareholders. Form 8832 is the entity classification election (check-the-box) and Form 1120-S is the annual income tax return filed after the election is in place.
Question 2
Medium
Form W-4 is used to:
🎉
Correct Answer: D
Solution
Form W-4, Employee's Withholding Certificate, is completed by an employee at hire (and updated as circumstances change) so the employer can compute the correct amount of federal income tax to withhold from each paycheck under §3402 and the related Treas. Reg. §31.3402(f)(2)-1. The redesigned 2020-and-later Form W-4 replaced the old withholding allowance system with dollar-amount adjustments.
Question 3
Hard
A §501(c)(3) public charity and a §501(c)(4) social welfare organization differ in which of the following respects?
🎉
Correct Answer: D
Solution
Under §170(c)(2), only contributions to organizations described in §170(c) — which includes §501(c)(3) organizations — qualify as deductible charitable contributions for the donor. Contributions to a §501(c)(4) social welfare organization are generally not deductible as charitable contributions, although they may be deductible as ordinary and necessary business expenses under §162 in narrow circumstances (subject to the §162(e) lobbying limitations).
FreeFellow was built by Jeffrey Ting, a credentialed actuary and CFA charterholder who passed thirteen of the hardest exams in finance on the first attempt, and paid four-figure prep fees for every one. The learning itself was always free. The price was a moat.
So he started writing his own questions, then lessons, then mock exams, until it grew into a full prep platform covering 40 finance credentials with more than 45,000 original practice questions. The name says exactly what it is: the question bank is free, and Fellow is what you become once you pass.
01
Cost shouldn't decide who gets in.
The exam is a fair gate. A four-figure prep course is not. FreeFellow takes the second gate down, so the exam is the only one left.
02
Free should mean free.
No trial clock, no email gate, no credit card. The question bank, worked solutions, lessons, and readiness score stay free, and they are enough to pass.
03
Built by someone who sat where you sit.
He paid for the big-name courses, found nothing he respected, and built the prep he wished had existed. Not a marketing team that has never sat an exam.
