Could Maine’s new Pass-Through Entity Tax create a tax-saving opportunity for your business?

The answer depends on more than whether your company qualifies. Business leaders must also consider projected income, ownership, filing requirements, estimated payments, and the effect on cash flow.

ARB Principal John E. Hadwen, CPA, and Tax Manager Tiffany A. Wentworth, CPA, will help business owners and their advisors understand how Maine’s new PTET works, who may benefit, and what should be evaluated before making the annual election.

Hosted by the Manufacturers Association of Maine, this webinar is relevant to qualifying businesses across industries.
