Hi folks,
New guy here hoping to get some help and hoping to contribute!
I am looking for some guidance on how to properly complete a 1065/K1's for a new client. This guy called me on Friday (3/13) to ask me to do their taxes (lol). I filed an extension and told him I would get to it this week.
A little about my self:
I'm a CPA with 12 yrs background in corporate accounting, finance, and FP&A. I started my own consulting + outsourced controller and CFO a few years back, and started doing bookkeeping and taxes a couple years ago.
Here's the facts:
1. TX LLC setup 2019 to be taxed as Partnership (initial return)
2. The client that came up with the business idea was able to get a few partners through networking events and social connections. He and the partners agreed to a $1M valuation for the business.
3. There are 4 partners involved:
Partner A (ind) - (the guy that came up with the business idea) - contributed $100k capital, owns 81% equity
Partner B (ind) - contributed $20k, owns 2% equity ($1M valuation)
Partner C (ind) - did not contribute capital, is contributing "sweat equity", owns 16% equity
Partner D (S-Corp) - contributed $10k capital, owns 1% equity
I'm not sure how to properly setup their K1s to properly reflect ownership.
I have done several 1065s but all of them were partners that contributed capital that was inline with their ownership % and valuation.
The owner also tells me that there is a 2 year vesting period. I asked for a copy of their operating agreement, there is nothing in there about vesting.
Thanks!
