Client Success: Partnership State Tax Compliance
Our client was selling a hotel and terminating a partnership. The general partner wanted to make a distribution to the partners and needed an estimate of the amount of cash they would need to retain to meet tax obligations. To provide guidance, Cendrowski Corporate Advisors researched state tax withholding requirements and the available options. This analysis estimated both taxable operating income and gain on the sale and the magnitude and character of the gain. The partnership had numerous partners, and past distributions were not made per ownership percentage. This meant that a special allocation of income was also required. We prepared a projected income allocation to estimate state withholding requirements for each partner. Our client was able to distribute a portion of the sale proceeds to partners knowing what should be held back for future tax liabilities.
