Net Operating Loss Carryover

Income (Loss)
The
Income (Loss)
fields should reflect the taxable income or net operating loss for each of the preceding periods. Enter the taxable income or net operating loss from line 4 of Form SC1120 for each of the prior taxable years. Enter profit amounts as positive numbers and loss amounts as negative numbers.
note
Years with income or the respective income offset amounts in the next column don't have to be entered in order to have Form SC1120, Page 1 calculate correctly. However, in that situation, the SC Net Operating Loss Carryover Worksheet doesn't show the history of how net operating losses were generated and utilized.
Prior Year (Income Offset) NOL Utilized
The application adds the amount in this field to the income or loss reflected in the
Income (Loss)
fields to determine if there's a NOL amount available for carryover. If the
Income (Loss)
column is positive, enter a negative number for the amount of NOL deductions reflected on Form SC1120, line 5. If the
Income (Loss)
column is negative, enter a positive number for the amount of net operating loss utilized in prior years.
Net operating loss footnote
