An up-to-date response to the trend toward teaching corporate tax and partnership tax in a consolidated course, this book uses a unique mix of cases and rulings focusing on tax issues in a business planning context. The creative, student-friendly structure includes many examples and problems. The material can be taught in either an integrated manner or entity-by-entity. The 4th edition incorporates all legislative changes since the prior edition and recent cases and rulings. The 4th edition includes many examples and problems and a comprehensive teacher's manual (hard copy and diskette) with solutions to all problems and answers to all questions posed in the text. Parts I-IV are designed for an intermediate three or four credit course on C Corporations, S Corporations and partnerships. The material can be taught in either an integrated manner or entity by entity. Parts V-VI are designed for an advanced, two or three credit course in asset and stock sales, corporate reorganizations and spin-offs. The casebook is also appropriate for a three or four credit intermediate corporate tax course by omitting the partnership chapters. The book is suitable for both the J.D. and LL.M levels.
