As staff members gain more experience, they are expected to take on more complex assignments with minimal supervision. This course is designed to be a stepping stone for staff interested in pursuing more advanced partnership and LLC issues than mere preparation. The material provides a deep life-cycle study into critical areas of formation, special allocations of income and deductions, basis calculations and implications of recourse and nonrecourse debt, basis step-up under Section 754 on transfers of ownership interest, distributions, self-employment tax issues, and termination and liquidations of an LLC. With a blend of legal and tax ramifications regarding LLC-specific issues, this course identifies all the major areas that are potential sources of increased complexity.
