Question 156: A company is 1% owned by a father and 99% owned by an irrevocable family trust. All of the trust's beneficiaries are children under the age of 21. Do attribution rules apply, making the father the owner of 100% of the company? |
Answer: You didn't mention which set of attribution rules you were concerned about. Are you trying to determine if a controlled group or an affiliated service group exists? Did you want to find out if Dad's a highly compensated employee? Do you want to know if this company might be related to another for purposes of finding a management function group? |
