Case Study: Attention Business Owners Making 500K+ Who Want to Pay Less Taxes!

Many self-employed, sole proprietorship business clients have come to me over the years and asked the same question: "Would I save more money if I incorporated?" In most situations, the answer is YES.


I've heard many other accountants and CPAs say that changing from a sole proprietorship business to an S-Corporation would provide no benefit, the business would just be a different entity but the income and expenses would be the same. This simply is not true.

The client had the same income and general expenses. However, a client with an S-corporation gets many benefits that most accountants and CPAs do not realize. These come in the form of:


1) over $10,000 - $50,000 in tax-free fringe benefits,

2) over $10,000 in non-taxable reimbursements, and

3) over $10,000 in non-taxable income.


Thanks to these tax saving strategies, a $500,000 gross income sole proprietorship business client could save over $36,000 in taxes when they incorporate and file as an S-corporation instead!


Additional S-corporation benefit: an IRS audit rate which is 12 times lower than the audit rate of sole proprietorship businesses.
