  • Tax Strategies for Selling Your Company by David Boatwright and Agnes Gesiko Latham & Watkins LLP
    Tax Strategies For Selling Your Company By David Boatwright and Agnes Gesiko Latham & Watkins LLP The tax consequences of an asset sale by an entity can be very different than the consequences of a sale of the outstanding equity interests in the entity, and the use of buyer equity interests as acquisition currency may produce very different tax consequences than the use of cash or other property. This article explores certain of those differences and sets forth related strategies for maximizing the seller’s after-tax cash flow from a sale transaction. Taxes on the Sale of a Business The tax law presumes that gain or loss results upon the sale or exchange of property. This gain or loss must be reported on a tax return, unless a specific exception set forth in the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) or the Treasury Department’s income tax regulations provide otherwise. When a transaction is taxable under applicable principles of income tax law, the seller’s taxable gain is determined by the following formula: the “amount realized” over the “adjusted tax basis” of the assets sold equals “taxable gain.” If the adjusted tax basis exceeds the amount realized, the seller has a “tax loss.” The amount realized is the amount paid by the buyer, including any debt assumed by the buyer. The adjusted tax basis of each asset sold is generally the amount originally paid for the asset, plus amounts expended to improve the asset (which were not deducted when paid), less depreciation or amortization deductions (if any) previously allowable with respect to the asset.

  • Capital Gains and the Distribution of Income In
    CAPITAL GAINS AND THE DISTRIBUTION OF INCOME IN THE UNITED STATES∗ Jacob A. Robbinsy November 2018 Latest version here. Abstract This paper constructs a new data series on aggregate capital gains and their distribution, and documents that since 1980 capital gains have been the main driver of wealth accumulation. Over this period, capital gains averaged 8% of national income and comprised a third of total capital in- come. Capital gains are not included in the national income and prod- uct accounts, where the definition of national income reflects the goal of measuring current production. To explain the accumulation of household wealth and distribution of capital income, both of which are affected by changes in asset prices, this paper uses the Haig-Simons income concept, which includes capital gains. Accounting for capital gains increases the measured capital share of income by 5 p.p., increases the comprehensive savings rate (inclusive of capital gains) by 6 p.p., and leads to a greater measured increase in income inequality. Keywords: Capital gains, inequality, capital share, savings rate JEL Classification: E01, D63, E22, E21 ∗I would like to thank Gauti Eggertsson, David Weil, and Neil Mehrotra for their valuable guidance and insight. I thank the James and Cathleen Stone Project on Wealth and Income Inequality, the Washington Center for Equitable Growth, and the Institute for New Economic Thinking for financial support. yBrown University, Department of Economics, e-mail: [email protected] 1 INTRODUCTION 1 Introduction This paper documents a new fact: aggregate capital gains have increased sub- stantially in the United States over the past forty years.

  • A: Short-Term Gains (Less Than One Year) Are Distributed to Shareholders As Income Dividends and Are Taxed at Their Ordinary Income Tax Rate
    Near the end of each calendar year many mutual funds distribute capital gains to their shareholders. These gains arise when securities that have appreciated in value are sold and may be offset by sales of those that have depreciated in value. If the net result of the two is positive, then there is a capital gain, which by law must be distributed to each shareholder by the end of the calendar year. This material is being provided for informational purposes and should not be considered tax advice. Please consult your tax professional for more information. The following frequently asked questions provide further insight on the topic and may prove helpful. Q: What is the difference between a short-term and long-term capital gain? A: Short-term gains (less than one year) are distributed to shareholders as income dividends and are taxed at their ordinary income tax rate. Long-term capital gain distributions (greater than one year) are taxed at a maximum rate of 20%. Q: If the market is down or a fund has negative performance, why is a capital gain paid out? A: A fund may distribute capital gains due to the sale of a security which may have appreciated in value over the course of several years. A buy-low-and-sell-high philosophy creates just such an event. Portfolio managers who buy and hold for the long-term may also sell securities that have been held for a long time period and have exceeded price targets in a down market year, thereby creating a taxable event.

  • Reporting Capital Gains
    FS-2007-19, May 2007 — Page 1 of 3 Media Relations Office Washington, D.C. Media Contact: 202.622.4000 www.IRS.gov/newsroom Public Contact: 800.829.1040 Reporting Capital Gains FS-2007-19, May 2007 In order to educate taxpayers about their filing obligations, this fact sheet, the twelfth in a series, provides information with regard to capital gains reporting. Incorrect reporting of capital gains accounts for part of an estimated $345 billion per year in unpaid taxes, according to Internal Revenue Service estimates. Almost everything you own and use for personal purposes, pleasure, business or investment is a capital asset, including: • Your home • Household furnishings • Stocks or bonds • Coin or stamp collections • Gems and jewelry • Gold, silver or any other metal, and • Business property Understanding Basis The difference between the amount for which you sell the capital asset and your basis, which is usually what you paid for it, is a capital gain or a capital loss. You have a capital gain if you sell the asset for more than your basis. You have a capital loss if you sell the asset for less than your basis. Your basis is generally your cost plus improvements. You must keep accurate records that show your basis. Your records should show the purchase price, including commissions; increases to basis, such as the cost of improvements; and decreases to basis, such as depreciation, non-dividend distributions on stock, and stock splits. While all capital gains are taxable and must be reported on your tax return, only capital losses on investment or business property are deductible.

It considers the background to the UK’s privatisations, which industries were privatised and how, and summarises the results of studies of performance changes in privatised companies in the UK. It looks at the relative roles of competition, regulation and ownership changes in determining performance improvement. It concludes by looking at the wider lessons that might be learned from the UK’s privatisation experiment, including the importance of developing competitive markets and, in their absence, effective regulatory regimes.

David Parker Cranfield University School of Management Cranfield Bedfordshire MK43 0AL United Kingdom [email protected] Introduction The Labour Government of 1974-79 arranged the sale of some of the state’s shareholding in the petroleum company BP. However, this sale was dictated by budgetary pressures and did not reflect a belief within government that state industries should be privatised. Indeed, the same Labour Government took into state ownership two major industries, namely aerospace and shipbuilding.

  • The Character and Determinants of Corporate Capital Gains
    The Character and Determinants of Corporate Capital Gains Mihir A. Desai Harvard University and National Bureau of Economic Research William M. Gentry Williams College and National Bureau of Economic Research November 2003 This paper was prepared for the Tax Policy and the Economy Conference in November 2003 in Washington DC. We thank John Graham, Jim Hines and Jim Poterba for helpful comments and Sean Lubens for helpful research assistance. Desai thanks the Division of Research of Harvard Business School for generous funding. The Character and Determinants of Corporate Capital Gains ABSTRACT This paper analyzes how corporate capital gains taxes affect the capital gain realization decisions of firms. The paper outlines the tax treatment of corporate capital gains, the consequent incentives for firms with gains and losses, the efficiency consequences of these taxes in the context of other taxes and capital market distortions, and the response of firms to these incentives. Despite receiving limited attention, corporate capital gain realizations have averaged 30 percent of individual capital gain realizations over the last fifty years and have increased dramatically in importance over the last decade. By 1999, the ratio of net long-term capital gains to income subject to tax was 21 percent and was distributed across a variety of industries suggesting the importance of realization behavior to corporate financing decisions. Time-series analysis of aggregate realization behavior demonstrates that corporate capital gains taxes impact realization behavior significantly. Similarly, an analysis of firm-level investment and property, plant, and equipment (PPE) disposal decisions and gain recognition behavior similarly suggests an important role for these taxes in determining when firms raise money by disposing of assets and realizing gains.

  • Capital Gains Taxation March 2019
    Capital Gains Taxation March 2019 What is capital gains income? What are short- and long-term capital gains? When a taxpayer sells a capital asset, such as stocks, a home, or business assets, the difference between the sale price and the asset’s tax basis is either a capital gain or a loss. The “tax basis” is usually what the taxpayer invested in the asset, less any depreciation deductions claimed for business assets. Special basis rules apply to assets received as a gift or inheritance. The gain or loss on an asset held for more than one year is considered “long term.” If the taxpayer disposes of an asset after holding it for a year or less, the gain or loss is “short term.” How does the federal government tax capital gains income? Four maximum federal income tax rates apply to most types of net long-term capital gains income in tax year 2019 (these rates include the additional 3.8 percent tax on net investment income or NII): . 0 percent for taxpayers in the 10 percent or 15 percent bracket (under $78,750 of federal taxable income (FTI) for married joint filers) . 15 percent for taxpayers above the 15 percent bracket but below the threshold for the tax on NII (from $78,750 of FTI to $250,000 of modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) for married joint filers) . 18.8 percent for taxpayers subject to the tax on NII but not in the top bracket on ordinary income (from $250,000 of MAGI to $488,850 of FTI for married joint filers) .
