J. SIMPSON DEAN 35 T.C. 1083 (1961) CASE BRIEF

J. SIMPSON DEAN
35 T.C. 1083 (1961)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was a dispute over interest free loans from a corporation wholly owned by the taxpayers.
FACTS: Dean (Ps) were husband and wife and they were the sole owners of Nemours Corporation. They obtained interest free loans from that corporation. The loan sums were in total well in excess of $5 million. The IRS assessed taxes against Ps for the interest that should have been charged at the then prevailing prime rates at the time each loan was made. P sued to set aside these assessments alleging that an interest free loan cannot produce taxable income and that such loans were not dividends nor were they compensation. The government relied on past rulings related to rent free use of corporate property could result in the realization of income.
