In 2008, Floyd Carried Out a Successful Complete Termination Redemption

question 28

True/False

In 2008, Floyd carried out a successful complete termination redemption of his stock in Gray Corporation. Floyd was able to qualify the transaction as a complete termination redemption only by use of the family attribution waiver. In 2011, Floyd receives stock in Gray Corporation as a gift from his father. Floyd has acquired a prohibited interest within the 10-year postredemption period and, as a result, the 2008 redemption no longer qualifies as a complete termination redemption.
