Abstract

This article examines the effects of recent enactments upon the methods of transmitting interests in a closely-held corporation. Because the tax consequences will frequently vary depending upon whether the corporation is a C corporation or an S corporation, a brief description of each form precedes the discussion of the relevant tax consequences. The tax consequences, which will be discussed thereafter, involve interrelated questions: which consequences are involved, and who will bear their brunt? Because nontax considerations also influence the timing of stock transfers, the discussion will address them as well.
