Overview

When exit planning, it is important to weigh various issues, including tax implications, to achieve an effective management and/or ownership change. Many envision tax-free reorganizations being the most preferable structure to avoid capital gains tax, but the opportunities come at a cost to the seller. This course will provide a well-rounded discussion of the various strategies to consider when advising on exiting a business.

Highlights

  • Gain exclusion and tax-free reorganization planning
  • Gain exclusion with sales of C corporation stock – Section 1202
  • Deferral of gain with installment reporting
  • Gain planning with partnerships
  • Basis planning – basis step-up at death, gifts of interests to family
  • Restructuring the business entity – C vs. S corporation, partnerships, LLCs
  • Real estate planning – retention vs sales, like-kind exchanges
  • Employee stock ownership plans – special tax incentives
  • Employee benefit planning with ownership change
