If that sounds like you, then you may enjoy this article I recently had published in the September issue of Taxes Magazine, titled “Identifying Reverse Acquisitions and the Resulting Tax Consequences”.
The reverse acquisition rules of Treas. Reg. 1.1502-75(d)(3) are among the most complicated rules within THE most complicated area of tax law: the consolidated return regulations.Unfortunately, many tax advisors don’t realize a reverse acquisition has occurred until it’s too late, and as a result, the wrong tax returns are filed for the wrong periods, creating a mess that can take significant time and effort to unwind.
