Answer:

The taxable amount of the distribution is $120000  and The applicable penalty is $3,000.

Explanation:

The distribution to Janet does not qualify for the exception to the 10% penalty.

Distribution return of adjusted Tax Basis

= (Adjusted Basis/FMV)*Gross Distribution

= (500000/625000)*150000

= $120000

amount subject to income tax  = $150,000 - $120,000

                                                  = $30,000

Appicable tax penalty = $30,000*10%

                                     = $3,000

Therefore, The taxable amount of the distribution is $120000  and The applicable penalty is $3,000.
