§ 13.3 CONDUCT OF BUSINESS
p. 336. Insert following carryover paragraph, before heading:
An organization was formed to operate a “holistic medicine establishment” selling medicinal marijuana products to patients with prescriptions from licensed physicians; it conducted a storefront business, being licensed by a state as a retailer of recreational‐use cannabis. The IRS denied recognition of exemption as a social welfare organization to this entity, on the ground that its primary activity was carrying on a business with the public in a manner similar to for‐profit organizations.113.1 The IRS applied the commerciality doctrine in reaching this conclusion, finding that the organization “use[s] promotional policies to enhance sales,” “advertises goods and services,” sets margins at a level that “enables [it] to replace merchandise inventory,” and “maintain[s] a retail outlet with hours of operation that are competitive with other retail establishments.”113.2 Notably, the IRS did not deploy the arguments that it uses in the charitable setting: namely, that the activity is illegal under federal law and is contrary to federal public policy.113.3
