Navigating an evolving economic and regulatory landscape can prove challenging for any business, especially when faced with difficult valuation questions that can impact the company’s cash tax position. Valuations performed for tax purposes often carry significant financial implications and continue to receive significant scrutiny from the Internal Revenue Service, courts, and foreign revenue agencies. With these challenges in mind, it is essential for the company and its appraiser to understand the importance of several tax-related nuances when developing a defensible tax position.
