Succession Planning Services

If you own a family business, retirement isn't simply a matter of deciding not to go into the office anymore. You've got some critical questions to answer like...

"What happens to the business when you're no longer running it?"
"Will you have enough money to retire?"

The family dynamic complicates the whole transition because of the relationships and emotions involved. Most people are not comfortable discussing topics such as aging, death, and financial affairs.

Comfortable or not, succession planning should be a priority for any family business considering that more than seven out of ten family-owned businesses fail to survive the transition from founder to second generation, typically falling prey either to estate taxes or family discord - or both.

Developing and implementing a well-designed succession plan with a Provo is essential to the survival of a family business from one generation to the next.

A Provo tax accountant can help you with these key issues -

  • Keeping it in the family. Are you going to pass the business on to your family or sell it to a third party? We help you weigh the advantages and disadvantages of each of these options.
  • Who's going to run the business when you're gone? Management and ownership are not one and the same. You may decide to transfer management of your business to just one of your children but transfer equal shares of business ownership to all your children, whether they're actively involved in the business or not.
  • Minimizing the tax bite. The tax burden when transitioning a family business can be significant. The challenge is that a family business is not generally a liquid asset, but taxes are typically due when ownership is transferred.
  • Making it fair. Transferring family ownership often adds a tremendous amount of stress to individual family members. We talk with each of the family members to ensure that they feel they a getting an equitable and fair share of the pie.

What we do for you...

  • Once we understand how you feel about the key issues above, we begin constructing your succession plan focusing on these 5 issues...
  • Business Valuation
  • Business Restructuring
  • Tax Consequences
  • Retirement Projections
  • Tax Projections

    Candie has helped me with my books for the last few years and is wonderful at giving me pointers on some issues I was stuck on!

  • Dave Andrews
    I cannot say enough about the incredible service I received by Darrin K. During one of the busiest times of the year — tax season — he was responsive, detailed, and genuinely invested in helping me clean up a complicated back tax situation. What blew me away was that another firm quoted me $18,000 more for what would have been far inferior service. He didn't just save me money — he gave me clarity, peace of mind, and a path forward. If you're looking for an accountant who actually cares about your outcome and treats you like a priority, look no further.

    I cannot recommend Paramount Tax & Accounting enough! As a business owner, finding a CPA who actually understands the pace of entrepreneurship is rare. The onboarding process was incredibly easy and seamless, which I appreciated given how busy things can get. What stood out the most was their speed. They move much faster than any other CPAs I’ve worked with in the past, and their communication remained consistent throughout. Most importantly, they saved us a significant amount in taxes and provided proactive recommendations that have already made a tangible impact on our business strategy. If you want a firm that is responsive, fast, and actually looks out for your bottom line, this is the place.
