Non-profit organizations

Non-profit organizations are attracting increasing scrutiny from federal, state and local revenue authorities amidst constantly changing regulations for exempt status.

Specific services offered by Mark C. Bouldin, & Associates, P.A. to non-profit organizations include qualification of organizations as tax exempt under the Internal Revenue Code, advising clients as to the provisions regarding unrelated business taxable income, and obtaining exemptions for various state and local property, sales and unemployment taxes

Partnerships

A partnership is defined as two or more persons coming together as co-owners of a business for profit. Like corporations, partnerships are deemed as a separate legal entity, distinct from its individual partners; but it is not a separate entity for tax purposes. Partnerships can be sued, but a judgment against the partnership is not necessarily one against the individual partners. However, it is possible for partners to be held liable on contracts made on behalf of the partnership or on torts committed by the partnership (or one of its employees) in the ordinary course of partnership business.

A partner may assign his/her interest (or any portion therefore) in a partnership under certain circumstances. However, generally, the assignee cannot interfere with the management of the partnership and would only be entitled to receive distributions to which the previous partner would have received.

S-Corporations

Corporations with 75 or less shareholders can elect to be taxed as a partnership under the sub-chapter S of the IRS code. Under this option, the corporation is not taxed. However, shareholders will be taxed in proportion to the amount of stock held.

Shareholders Agreements

A company’s shareholders should define their relationship with one another at the outset of the corporation, as opposed to making those decisions after they present a problem. A shareholders agreement will define the rules and procedures to be followed in almost all situations, which can occur in the course of business between the respective shareholders.

Sole Proprietorship

Sole Proprietorship is a business that owns 100% of the assets and liabilities of a business. This is the simplest form of business. Sole proprietors are held personally liable for the obligations of the business.
