Proceeds:

Forgiven PPP loan proceeds are excluded from taxable income and are treated as tax-exempt income. For S-Corporations, the forgiven PPP loan proceeds increase the shareholder's basis in the S-Corporation stock and increase the Other Adjustments Account (OAA).

Expenses:

Eligible expenses paid with forgiven PPP loan proceeds are fully deductible. For S-Corporations, expenses paid with forgiven PPP loan proceeds should not reduce the Accumulated Adjustments Account (AAA). These expenses instead reduce the OAA.
