This book is intended as a detailed and annotated “checklist” for managing the sale of a business. This checklist covers, chronologically, the federal legal aspects as well as the federal tax planning details of the sale of a business, from the gathering of information to the steps following the transaction. The author’s commentary is fully supported by law, doctrine, case law, and the administrative position of the tax authorities.
It also features a 30-page chronological checklist that will quickly become an indispensable tool. The guide is divided into three parts: planning – 2 years before the sale, 6 months before the sale, and during and after the sale. Each part covers the steps to take: performing the analysis, collecting documentation, taking action, drafting documents, finalizing the sale, and what to do following the sale.
