LLC and partnership taxation are considered by many one of the most complex areas of our Internal Revenue Code. If you are new to the subject, or if you have worked in this area for years but need a quick review, this webcast will provide a firm grasp of the fundamental concepts, help you to build a strong foundation of knowledge and freshen up your skills. This webcast addresses the tax consequences of the most common transactions engaged in by LLCs and partnerships. Develop a level of comfort with the basic conceptual framework underlying partnership and LLC taxation, with an emphasis on explaining the tax consequences associated with issues that are most frequently confronted by tax practitioners.

Major subjects

  • Basic tax structure of partnerships and LLCs
  • Tax consequences of partnership or LLC formation
  • Partnership distributions
  • Compensatory payments to partners
  • At-risk and passive activity limits
  • Profit and loss allocations: general rules and restrictions

Learning objective(s)
