Tax strategy specialists helping business owners and real estate investors minimize taxes and build wealth through entity optimization
AE Tax Advisors publishes educational tax resources and provides individual tax advisory services. This book introduces S corporation planning questions; the appropriate election, compensation and reporting decisions depend on the owner’s actual facts.
The series was written to fill a gap we saw in the market: business owners making entity decisions worth tens of thousands of dollars per year based on outdated blog posts or generic advice that fails to account for their specific situation. Each book in the series breaks down the tax code provisions, walks through real-world scenarios, and gives readers a framework for making informed decisions alongside their tax advisor.
Together, the four books cover the full landscape of business entity taxation -- partnerships, C Corporations, S Corporations, and real estate investment structures -- giving readers a complete toolkit for optimizing their tax position regardless of which entity type they use.
S Corporations represent one of the most powerful and widely used tax strategies for small business owners. The fundamental advantage is simple: by splitting compensation between a reasonable salary and shareholder distributions, S Corporation owners can save thousands of dollars per year in self-employment taxes. But the details matter enormously -- from setting a defensible reasonable salary to optimizing the Section 199A QBI deduction to managing basis for loss deductions.
"S Corporation Tax Savings" covers all of these topics and more, with specific attention to the areas where the IRS focuses its enforcement and where business owners most commonly leave money on the table. The book includes examples for discussing planning decisions. Examples illustrate concepts and do not establish a particular client’s results.

S Corporation Tax Savings is a starting point for an informed discussion about business structure, owner compensation, and annual planning. The book helps readers identify questions to take to their advisor; it does not establish the right salary, election, or filing position for an individual business.
