Consultation

Business Acquisition/Valuation Consultation

We provide services to business owners, including physicians and other medical providers who are looking to acquire or sell an existing business.
We review proposed purchase or sale agreements for capital gain, ordinary income, or other tax treatment implications.
We also provide due diligence services including the review of the proposed business with a view toward business valuation. Specifically, we look at detail accounts receivable and the cash application process to insure that A/R is not overstated.
We also look at the valuation of goodwill to insure that the purchase or sale is in compliance with state bulk sales or IRS amortization guidelines. This insures maximum tax benefit to both the purchaser and the seller.
We additionally advise our clients of forms of organization for the purchased practice with a view toward income tax minimization and tax compliance.
These services are provided at hourly rates ranging from $85 to $150 per hour, depending on the level of staff necessary to fulfill the engagement.

When starting a new business, much paperwork must be completed prior to starting operations. This paperwork includes application for an Employer Identification Number, forming your business (corporation, LLC, partnership, d/b/a sole proprietor, etc.), application as a sales tax vendor (if applicable), registration as an employer, obtaining workers compensation and disability insurance, setting up unemployment insurance, setting up billing and accounting systems, obtaining start up loans and lines of credit, etc.
We provide these services to our clients at rates ranging from $55 - $135 per hour. These rates are seen by our clients as the most competitive in the area, and relieve our clients of tedious, one-time tasks that require some familiarity before adjudicating.
