Tax Planning for Troubled Corporations, by noted tax attorneys Gordon D. Henderson and Stuart J. Goldring, clearly outlines the steps involved in corporate bankruptcy proceedings and examines the tax procedural aspects of bankruptcy. This classic treatise provides crystal clear analysis and guidance for any company considering bankruptcy filing and for tax, financial and legal advisors to such companies. It examines the full gamut of tax aspects, consequences and considerations of bankruptcy and non-bankruptcy restructuring of financially troubled businesses -- from the corporation's initial tax payment and reporting obligations through the claims resolution process, to the payment and discharge of tax claims pursuant to a confirmed Chapter 11 plan.
