Taxpayer's Comprehensive Guide to LLCs and S Corps: 2021-2022 Edition

Book Synopsis: This is our ninth edition (2021-2022 Edition). How can I avoid self-employment taxes? This simple question was the inspiration for creating an article describing the benefits of an S Corporation. That original article, which was about four pages long, quickly became a series of knowledge base posts on the WCG website. The articles touched on basic topics such as how to elect S Corp status, shareholder payroll, reasonable salary determination and liability protection. Those broad topics demanded much more information, both horizontally by spanning into more related issues, and vertically by digging deeper into the granular yet riveting levels of the tax code.Beyond general S Corp benefits, our 2021-2022 edition of this book will show you-1.
