  • Identify when payments to employees and other service providers constitute income to the recipients, including a review of a 2020 tax court case

  • Recall how nonqualified deferred compensation rules interact with this gross-up idea
  • Identify how issuing a profits interest may avoid these tax issues

Major Subjects
  • “Gift” to Service Providers
  • Case Studies
  • Compensation vs. Gift to Employees
