Professional Corporations 100% of Net Worth + 1 Times Salaries or Income of Owners/Partners (Not to Exceed Specific Maximum) OR 1 ½ - 2 Times Salaries or Income of Owners/Partners (Not to Exceed Specific Maximum) = Value of Professional Service Corporation

26. ©2004 Gerald Katz II.Commercial Businesses A. Net Value Method 100% of Net Worth OR 1 – 1-1/2 Times Salary or Gross Income of Owners/Partners = Value of Business Organization Valuation contd

27. ©2004 Gerald Katz B. Capitalization of Earnings Method 4 - 8 Times Net Earnings (Depending Upon Length of Business Existence And Growth of Earnings) = Value of Business Organization Valuation contd

28. ©2004 Gerald Katz Problem With Using Traditional Disability Income Insurance Policy To Fund Buy Sell Agreement They are designed to provide personal income to purchase food, clothing and other necessities of life. They cannot also provide additional benefits to complete Buy Sell agreement. What happens if disabled insured recovers after buy sell is triggered? Burden of remaining payments shift to business and active owners. Amount of coverage available is limited to normal issue and participation limits and is based on insureds income, not value of business interest.

29. ©2004 Gerald Katz TAXATION OF DISABILITY BUY SELL PLANS Premiums:Not deductible by either corporation or partnership (IRC Sec. 265) Benefits:Received income tax-free (IRC Sec. 104(a)(3) NOTE:Disabled Owner-Employee is taxed only on the gain from sale of business interest. May qualify for installment sale tax treatment if at least one payment is received by seller after close of tax year.

30. ©2004 Gerald Katz Prospecting For Disability Buy Sell Clients & Sales 1.Look for closely held small corporation or partnerships with 2-5 active working owners. 2.Firms should be profitable business in existence at least two to three years. 3. For professional corporations (physicians, dentists, attorneys, CPAs, etc.) they generally do not have to be in business more than one year. 4. Do not prospect in mom & pop business arena or in blue-collar businesses. They generally are not offered buy sell.
