37 37 This opinion, with its focus on ripening of stock into a fixed right to receive money, illustrates that this matter of the timing of charitable gifts, for deductibility purposes, ties in with the doctrine of anticipatory assignment of income (see § 2.1(h)) and the step transaction doctrine (see § 3.7). The facts in another court opinion amount to a case study as to how not to go about structuring a charitable contribution of stock, with lessons abounding for donors, lawyers, accountants, and appraisers (Bergquist v. Commissioner, 131 T.C. 8 (2008)).

61 61 In a federal tax controversy, state law controls the determination of a taxpayer's interest in property, while the tax consequences are determined in accordance with federal law (e.g., United States v. Nat'l Bank of Commerce, 472 U.S. 713, 722 (1985)).

This rule was created because corporations intending to make the maximum charitable contribution allowable as a deduction experienced difficulty in determining, before the end of the tax year, what their net income would be.
