Tax & Legal Implications Of Selling Your Business | 132

In this informative episode, Jason Pereira, a senior partner and financial planner, provides a detailed breakdown of the two main approaches for selling or exiting a business: share sales and asset sales. He compares these approaches to selling a house versus selling the furniture inside. Key points addressed include tax implications, legal liabilities, and the overall sale process for each method. Key takeaways include how share sales can offer tax advantages like the lifetime capital gains exemption and simpler transaction mechanics, while asset sales can result in a more complex and paperwork-heavy process but allow the buyer to cherry-pick desired assets. This comprehensive guide aims to help Canadian small business owners make informed decisions when planning their business exit.
