Calculating the earnings and profits (E&P) of a domestic consolidated group is a complex and time-consuming process. Depending on the size of the group and age of the companies, it can involve data totaling thousands of corporate years. The same is true for calculating the stock basis of each member of a consolidated group. This is why few companies maintain these calculations on a current basis. Tax departments simply don’t have the time, the resources or the specific need to complete these studies.

Our national E&P consulting team can help. We have significant experience producing studies for consolidated groups of all sizes, including businesses whose tax data extends back to the early 1900s.
