Tax Preparation and Planning RMS provides both tax preparation and tax planning services to its business and individual clients. We distinguish the two services because each involves very different relationships and processes. Tax preparation requires a periodic gathering of information for the purpose of producing timely and accurate external information. Planning is an ongoing process that requires the client and CPA to create a plan to follow in order to minimize tax liability and utilize all planning opportunities. Effective tax planning will not occur unless the client and CPA develop a close, trusting relationship. Our professionals can provide tax services in a many areas that include:

Valuation Services Our valuation services include business valuations of private enterprises, calculations of damages in litigation, and intangible property value determinations. The majority of valuations are performed to determine actual (real value) ownership interests in a privately held entity. True value or worth of an interest is difficult to ascertain or to approximate value because there is no active market to sell or trade the interest. Value determinations are most commonly needed to calculate estate tax upon death, split up family assets in a divorce, and negotiate value in a purchase, sale or merger of a business enterprise. A business valuation is also useful in functioning as a management tool assisting owners in assessing success and management effectiveness. Business owners need to be aware that application of an industry-wide formula in determining the value of their business will normally result in a figure far different from the actual value. Determining the correct worth of your business requires a thorough scrutiny of the company’s financial health.
