This course covers the federal income taxation of Subchapter C corporations, i.e. corporations that are subject to the corporate income tax. These include all large publicly traded corporations as well as a significant number of closely held corporations. It covers the tax life of a corporation from its formation, to its distribution of cash or property to shareholders, to its eventual liquidation. The course spends significant time on the tax aspects of corporate mergers and acquisitions as well as corporate divisions, such as the spin-off of a corporate subsidiary. The course will not cover the tax treatment of Subchapter S corporations. The course does not require any mathematical expertise and is designed for those considering a general or corporate practice as well as for students with a special interest in tax law.
