Key Takeaways:
- Strategic Compensation Planning: Paying salaries and offering bonuses to owner-employees can be an effective method for extracting funds from a C Corporation while avoiding the burden of double taxation.
- Tax-Efficient Benefits: Establishing benefits such as health insurance and 401(k) plans not only supports employees but also serves as a powerful tax-saving strategy for business owners.
- Real Estate Investment Cautions: While corporations can invest in real estate, direct ownership of residential property within a C Corp can lead to unfavorable tax treatment. Careful planning is essential to avoid pitfalls.
- Leveraging the QSBS Exemption: The Qualified Small Business Stock (QSBS) exemption allows for the exclusion or deferral of capital gains on the sale of qualified stock—an advantageous opportunity for startup founders and early investors.
- Importance of CPA-Led Exit Planning: Collaborating with a CPA is critical when preparing for a business exit. Proper tax planning can significantly enhance post-sale outcomes by optimizing entity structure, timing, and available deductions.
