Taxpayer victory in the battle over built-in capital gains tax
$225.00
Description
Abstract: Built-in capital gains tax is an economic reality for C corporations. Recent Tax Court rulings have forced the IRS to concede that hypothetical investors consider imbedded tax liabilities when buying and selling C corporations. This article discusses a recent case, Estate of Jelke v. Commissioner, which provides an example of the ongoing debate as to whether valuators should apply dollar-for-dollar or discounted reductions for built-in capital gains tax liabilities.
