How do you determine reasonable compensation? We’ll cover every important case and provide practical methods to calculate how much compensation is reasonable. We’ll also cover basis increases that arise from shareholder debt: what works and what doesn’t work. Finally, we’ll cover what happens when an S corporation is inadvertently terminated – how you can get the train back on the track.
