Interest in Partnership Event Part IV reports the information relating to a fully taxable disposition of a portion of an interest in a section 721(c) partnership. Complete this Part if a U.S. transferor or a partnership in which a U.S. transferor is a direct or indirect partner disposes of (directly or indirectly through one or more partnerships) a portion of an interest in a section 721(c) partnership in a transaction in which the gain or loss, if any, is recognized. This will not be an acceleration event for the portion of the interest transferred. The gain deferral method will continue to apply for the section 721(c) property of the section 721(c) partnership. The rules of Regulations section 1.704-3(a)(7) are applied to determine the remaining built-in gain in the section 721(c) property on a property-by-property basis that is attributable to the portion of the interest in the section 721(c) partnership is retained. See Regulations section 1.721(c)-5(f).
Column (a). Provide a description of the disposition of the interest in the partnership, including whether the interest was a direct or indirect interest (through one or more partnerships). If more than one taxable disposition event occurs in the tax year, provide the required information for each event separately in Part IV in chronological date order. If additional space is needed, provide the information in Part VI.
Column (c). Enter the percentage of partnership interest that was disposed of in the event to which all gain or loss, if any, is recognized.
Column (d). Enter the percentage of the partnership interest (directly or indirectly through one or more partnerships) that the U.S. transferor retained immediately after the event.
Column (e). Enter the aggregate amount of the remaining built-in gain for all of the section 721(c) properties that is attributable to the portion of the interest in the section 721(c) partnership that is retained. Attach a detailed supporting schedule to Schedule H that separately states each remaining section 721(c) property and its respective remaining built-in gain allocable to the U.S. transferor included in the aggregate amount reported in column (e).
