Program Description
Assessing reasonable compensation for shareholder employees in closely held companies remains a key concern for shareholders, valuation professionals, and tax advisors. U.S. courts, particularly the Tax Court, have established multiple factors and guidelines to assess reasonableness of compensation. Industry practices and regulations are also factors, while federal and state statutes prohibit certain facts from being considered.

• Recognize commonly accepted methodology
• Determine compensation comparability data
