1) It would probably be wise to consult a business valuation
specialist to properly value the corporation.

2) You have an 2 options for reporting income on your K-1 in
the year of the sale:

a) The income gets prorated per share per day. Your
ownership % at the end of the year would a number betweeen
25% and 75% depending on what day the sale took place.

b) Make an election under IRC Section 1377(a)(2) to "close
the books" and treat one year as two separate tax years.
For example, the sale takes place on 3/30/05.... You would
get 25% of the income through 3/30/05. Then, from 4/1/05
through 12/31/05 you would get 75% of the income.

Default s corp shares transfer ownership

I operate a S Corp. WE have a total of 10000 shares. my
parents own 5000 shares, my uncle owns 2500 shares and I own
2500 shares. My parents want to sell me their shares in the
S Corp. How do I determine the value of those shares and how
is that usually recorded? Also, if they sell me the shares
now, then is it true that all income after that date will be
part of my K1 ? Then on my K1, when it lists percentage of
ownership, would that be current or before my purchase?
Thanks

This year I am in the high tax bracket, what can I purchase
that have top of the line deductions? I remember last year
there was the huge and heavy SUV.. anything this year?
