Allows a credit against the individual income tax for incentive stock (original issue common or preferred stock) acquired in a domestic corporation whose equity capital does not exceed $15,000,000 immediately before the unrestricted public offering of such stock. Specifies the amount of such credit to be an amount equal to the sum of: (1) ten percent of the first $10,000 of such taxpayer's adjusted basis; plus (2) five percent of any other amount of such adjusted basis.

Limits eligible securities to over-the-counter equity securities of corporations which, on the last day of the taxable year of the taxpayer preceding the taxable year of the sale or exchange, had $25,000,000 or less of equity securities in such corporation outstanding. Restricts the availability of such deduction to a reserve which has no more than $1,000,000 as of the close of the taxable year, after specified required adjustments. Prohibits any deduction if the amount of the additions to the reserve for the taxable year exceeds 30 percent of the fair market value of average monthly inventory positions carried for market making activities by the taxpayer during such year.

Limits recognition to that portion of any gain in excess of the cost of such other stock. Requires the reduction of the basis of any such subsequently purchased stock by the amount of gain not recognized. Limits small business stock to stock in businesses whose equity capital does not exceed $15,000,000. Reduces the corporate tax rate schedule as follows: (1) from 17 percent to 15 percent of the first $25,000 of income; (2) 30 percent of income between $50,000 and $100,000 (currently $75,000); (3) 40 percent of income between $100,000 and $150,000 (currently, between $75,000 and $100,000); and (4) 46 percent of income in excess of $150,000 (currently $100,000).
