For an affiliated group filing a consolidated return under the rules of section 1501, AMT must be figured on a consolidated basis.  \nWho Must File  \nGenerally, file Form 4626 if any of the following apply.  \n The corporation is not a “small corporation” exempt from the AMT (as explained below) .  \n The corporation's taxable income or (loss) before the net operating loss (NOL) deduction plus its adjustmentsand preferences total more than $40,000 or, if smaller, its allowable exemption amount.  \n The corporation claims any general business credit, any qualified electric vehicle passive activity credit from prior years, or the credit for prior year minimum tax.  \nExemption for Small Corporations  \nA corporation is treated as a small corporation exempt from the AMT for its current tax year if:  \n1. The current year is the corporation's first tax year in existence (regardless of its gross receipts for the year), or  \n2. Both of the following apply.  \na. It was treated as a small corporation exempt from the AMT for all prior tax years beginning after 1997.  \nb. Its average annual gross receipts for all 3-tax-year periods (or portions thereof during which the corporation was in existence) ending before its current tax year did not exceed $7.5 million ($5 million for the corporation's first 3-tax-year period) . See section 55(e) .  \nThe following rules apply when figuring gross receipts under 2b above.  \n Gross receipts must be figured using the corporation's tax accounting method and include total sales (net of returns and allowances), amounts received for services, and income from investmentsand other sources. See Temporary Regulations section 1.448-1T(f)(2)(iv) for more details.  \n Gross receipts include those of any predecessor of the corporation, including non-corporate entities.  \n For a short tax year, gross receipts must be annualized by multiplying them by 12 and dividing the result by the number of months in the tax year.  \n The gross receipts of all persons treated as a single employer under section 52(a), 52(b), 414(m), or 414(o) must be aggregated.  \nLoss of small corporation status. If the corporation qualified as a small corporation exempt from the AMT for its previous tax year, but does not meet the gross receipts test for its current tax year, it loses its AMT exemption status. Special rules apply in figuring AMT for the tax year beginning on the “change date.” The change date is the first day of the corporation's tax year for which the corporation ceased to be a small corporation. Where this applies, complete Form 4626 taking into account the following modifications.  \n The adjustments for depreciation and amortization of pollution control facilities apply only to property placed in service on or after the change date.  \n The adjustment for mining exploration and development costs applies only to amounts paid or incurred on or after the change date.  \n The adjustment for long-term contracts applies only to contracts entered into on or after the change date.  \n When figuring the amount to enter online 6, for any loss year beginning  \nbefore the change date, use the corporation's regular tax NOL for that year.  \n Figure the limitation on line 4d only for prior tax years beginning on or after the change date.  \n Enter zero on line 2c of the Adjusted Current Earnings (ACE) Worksheet.
