Tax planning for the sale of a private company

Article Abstract:

Entrepreneurs can increase the value of a company sale by taking prior precautions concerning tax affairs, although these factors are often left to the last minute of a sale, resulting in a decreased profit for the seller. The most important tax issue is capital gains tax (CGT), which needs to be timed and structured to obtain the maximum benefits. A lower sale price is often incurred when problems relating to tax issue are discovered at the time of the sale.
