Tax Planning · Business Planning
A starter checklist for incorporated business owners
As an incorporated business owner, can you answer these five questions?
1. How much should you pay yourself — and should it be salary, dividends or both?
2. How much money should remain in your corporation, and how should it be invested?
3. What happens to your family and your business if you cannot work or die unexpectedly?
4. If you sold your business tomorrow, how much would you actually keep after tax?
5. Is your corporate, personal, retirement and estate planning working together?
