HOW TO SAVE TAXES WHEN SELLING OR BUYING A BUSINESS: Federal and state taxes can gobble up to 50% of the gain when a business is sold ... or as little as 18% (and sometimes even less) if the sale is planned properly. The buyer of a business, as well, is interested in tax planning to maximize future deductions when running the business. Attorney Raymond Kolak will describe tax-savings opportunities and challenges in language you can understand and put to use.
