Case:

Tom M and his wife, Donna M, are the owners of a heating oil delivery business which they operated for more than 20 years. They sold the business to a competitor on April 30, 2022, after the end of the 2021-2022 heating season. The heating oil delivery business's assets consisted solely of a customer list, service parts, oil inventory and three delivery trucks and no real property:

Truck #1, purchased on June 15, 2020 for $80,000, cumulative depreciation $35,000, FMV of $70,000

Truck #2, purchased on March 20, 2018 for $45,000, cumulative depreciation $40,000, FMV of $60,000

Truck #3, purchased on October 15, 2018 for $40,000, cumulative depreciation $35,000, FMV of $50,000

The business was owned by both of them with a share of 50% each. They realized net profits of $45,000 (JAN-APR , 2022) from their operations. The shareholder account balances for Tom and Donna as of Jan 1, 2022 were $0.

Their competitor, Energy Star Corp. (Buyer), paid the purchase price of $495,700 plus the value of the oil inventory at cost on the day of the closing, allocated as follows:

Truck 1 70,000

Truck 2 60,000

Truck 3 50,000

Supplies Parts (cost - $4,300) 8,200

Restrictive Covenant* 7,500

Goodwill 300,000

Oil Inventory purchased at cost, generated no gain or loss

*Restrictive Covenant: As a condition of the purchase, the Buyer demanded that Tom M, Donna M and Tom M Oil Inc. agree not to own or operate, directly or indirectly, another oil company for three years, in exchange for $7,500.

Tom M Oil Inc. ceased business as of April 30, 2022 after the sale and has distributed the proceeds to Tom and Donna in complete liquidation during 2022.
