MULTIPLYING YOUR TAX AND BUSINESS BENEFITS USING MULTIPLE BUSINESS ENTITIES   (MMBE)
In this litigious climate, business owners need to consider methods of reducing their exposure to legal liability. Further, states are much more aggressive in pursuing nexus tax liability.

ACCOUNTING FOR GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS   (AGOI)
