My basic question is, if an MLP distribution is taxable, will this be
indicated on the K-1?
In more detail: I have shares/'units' from an MLP. The 'ending
capital account' unexpectedly (to me) went slightly negative on the
2014 K-1. My understanding is that, once my basis reaches $0, further
distributions are subject to tax. And, my not-so-solid understanding
is that 'nonrecourse liabilities' (substantial, in this case) increase
my basis.
So, if I'm right about the effect of nonrecourse liabilites, I would
have nothing to worry about here. But, it would be reassuring to know
that, if some of the distro was taxable, the K-1 would say so.
Thank you for any light you might shed.
