Please join us for this quick hitting, early morning interactive discussion Aimed at business owners with 25 or more employees. 

It is usually a good idea for a company to save money for a rainy day. Unfortunately, business owners can run into serious tax trouble if they sock away too much cash. The tax trouble comes from the Accumulated Earnings Tax which is a tax on corporations buried in a little noticed Subchapter of the Internal Revenue Code. Although many businesses have tended to ignore this tax, the IRS is fully aware of it and is not shy about trying to impose it whenever it feels that "excessive" funds are being accumulated by a corporation.

With Congress only now coming back in the week of September 10, 2012 from its traditional August recess, there is not too much to report for September 2012. Consequently, with the 2012 Presidential election almost here, it seems appropriate to compare and contrast in general terms the tax policies being advanced by President Obama and former Governor Romney. It is likely that the policies being advanced now by the winner of the November 6, 2012 election will impact not only 2013, but also 2014 and beyond.

Shakespeare may not have had taxpayers in mind when he gave Juliet the line, "What's in a name?" But a name, in the sense of what label international parties affix to their cross-border agreements may cause unintended and expensive tax consequences, depending on which countries are involved. The U.S. has long taken the approach that the substance of an arrangement, rather than what the parties name it, will govern its tax treatment. Other countries may place greater emphasis on how an agreement is titled, which can result in pitfalls as well as opportunities for tax planning, such as those examined here.
