Strieby Corp. operates a business with three separate entities as subsidiaries that operate as a unitary business: Matty Corp., Kennedy Corp. and Jackson Corp.. Strieby has arranged operations so that Matty has nexus only with Texas, Kennedy has nexus only with Massachusetts, and Jackson has nexus only with California. Strieby is domiciled in California. Assuming California is unitary state, which entities will be included in the Strieby income tax return?

Those that will be required to file a California return are; Matty, Strieby, Kennedy and Jackson. From the question we are informed that all of the entities involved are operating unitary Business, which is the same concept followed by California. And we know that

Unitary business can be regarded as group of persons which are related and having interdependent business activities/operations. So in this case, single California return will be filled by the entities involved.
