Cooperative associations are not exempt from tax under this part, but are permitted a deduction for all income arising from business done for or with members, and for or with nonmembers when done on a nonprofit basis.

Thus, all cooperatives are subject to tax on or measured by income derived from business done with nonmembers on a profit basis but not less than the minimum tax. It is immaterial that the income derived from nonmember business is incidental to the primary activity of the taxpayer.

For special deductions allowed farmer's cooperative associations, see Legal Ruling 389 (CCH Paragraph 205-320; P-H Paragraph 13,640).
