Schedule N (1120) is used by corporations that have assets in or business operations in a foreign country or a U.S. possession. Schedule O (Form 1120) will be used by corporations that are members of a controlled group to show the adoption, amendment, or termination of an apportionment plan. It will also be used to show the apportionment of taxable income, income tax, and other tax benefits for members of the controlled group. Schedule PH (Form 1120) is used by personal holding companies to figure the personal holding company tax under section 541.
