The publisher and the advisory firm

Why this corporate publication exists

Choosing a corporation requires following money through both the company and its shareholders. The corporate rate alone cannot establish the cost of an entity choice. Owners also need to consider compensation, benefits, reinvestment, distributions and the structure of an eventual exit.

Start with the company-and-shareholder tax model. Continue with the retained-earnings guide if the business expects to accumulate cash, or the asset-sale and stock-sale comparison if a transaction is approaching. Each resource is intended to make the assumptions visible before an entity recommendation is made.

What to bring to a corporate planning discussion

Corporate returns, financial statements and shareholder ownership records.
A cash forecast showing reinvestment and expected owner withdrawals.
Payroll, benefit plans, loan documents and distribution history.
Acquisition, financing or sale proposals and supporting budgets.
