Answer:

Cherry Corporation's deduction for organizational expenditures for 2019 = $7,220

Explanation:

The organizational expenses that can be immediately deducted is $5000. However, if the total formation expenses exceed $50,000 , only $5000 is reduced by such amount which exceeds $50,000, and balance must be amortized over 180 months.

Here, the organization begins business on January 2019. So there's 12 months amortization .

Here, the income is $50,900 ,so exceeds $50,000 by 900.

So the immediate deduction = $5,000 - $900 = $4,100

Amount to be amortized = $50,900 - $4,100 = $46,800

Amortization for 2019 = ($46,800/180)*12 = $3,120

Cherry Corporation's deduction for organizational expenditures for 2019 = $4,100 + $3,120 = $ 7,220
