With fair value accounting, real estate valuation is an increasingly important and dynamic topic. This session will address the basics of real estate appraising, including:
This interactive program will cover the tax and economic provisions in a typical joint venture agreement. It is important to understand the income tax issues associated with such provisions. The presenter will “walk through” a joint venture agreement from the commencement of the venture to the termination of the venture. This program is highly relevant for any tax professional working on joint venture transactions.
This session will explain fundamental partnership accounting concepts including income allocations and use of the hypothetical liquidation at book value method. It will also discuss common promote structures used in the real estate industry and illustrate the techniques required for calculating such arrangements.
This interactive and lively session is targeted at those tax practitioners having some familiarity with partnership tax issues but who do not consider themselves expert in the area. This year will include self-employment issues, strategic book-ups (and when not to book up), determining a partnership's taxable year, transactions that collapse a partnership into a disregarded entity and transactions that cause a disregarded entity to blossom into a partnership.
