1 lessonBuilding An Entity Choice Tax Model starts with the core question tax advisors hear from owners: which business form leaves the most after-tax cash. The course develops practical judgment across entity choice, S corporation pay, the QBI deduction, retirement plans, timing rules, depreciation, fringe benefits, family hiring, and estimated tax planning under current 2026 US rules. By the end, the reader can model tradeoffs, spot filing and compliance consequences, and build planning answers that fit real small business facts.
Entity selection and conversion, S corporation compensation, the §199A deduction and its limits, retirement plan contribution rules, cash-method timing, MACRS, §179, and 100% bonus depreciation, fringe benefits and owner health insurance, family employment, and estimated tax safe harbors with state PTE elections.
