S Corp

North Carolina

Asked on Aug 9, 2023

S corp and liquidation preferences?

I am a business owner who recently incorporated as an S corporation. I am interested in learning more about liquidation preferences as I am considering bringing on additional investors to help fund the business. I want to understand the implications of liquidation preferences on my ownership and the rights of the new investors.

Nicholas M.

Answered Aug 11, 2023

An S-Corp has some limitations here (such as no more than 100 share holders and only one class of stock). Depending on the control that you seek to retain in your business, you may want to transition to a full C-Corp, restructure preferred (voting) shares from equity shares, and manage your business governance (Board of Directors, Officers, Resolutions, etc.) in a way big investors will find compelling.

Business Issue

North Carolina

Asked on Apr 13, 2025

What are the tax implications of starting a side business while working full-time?

I am currently employed full-time and earn a stable income, but I am considering starting a side business to earn some extra money. I want to know what the tax implications would be in this situation, such as whether I would need to register as self-employed, how my income from the side business would be taxed, what deductions or credits I might be eligible for, and any other tax considerations I should be aware of before making a decision.

Jeff G.

Answered May 6, 2025

First, there's no specific "self-employment" registry. If you plan to operate a business in the state of North Carolina, you need to register with the Secretary of State. You would need to choose a specific entity form type (LLC, Inc, etc) and you would also need to choose how your entity would be taxed (some form types don't get a "choice" per se). But as a self-employed person, many opt to create a LLC as a "disregarded entity" with the IRS. This means that you have a business entity, with an IRS-provided TaxID number, and the protections of a limited liability company. But from a TAX perspective, the IRS would "disregard" the business and simply tax you on the earnings of the business. This can be of significance, so you'll want to talk with an attorney and/or a tax professional (CPA) about your planned activities and both your entity form type and your tax type so that you can optimize your choices. If you were to be an LLC as a disregarded entity (a sole proprietor), then you would owe both the taxes on your FTE wages as well as self-employed taxes (at a tax rate determined by your total earnings) on the money from your side job. So using round numbers, pretend tax rates and ignoring the concept of withholding, let's assume that your current federal effective tax rate is 20% and that you make $100K/year. You'd owe $20K in federal tax for your income. But if your side hustle also made $100K/year, your effective tax rate could creep higher (as an incremental tax, not every dollar is taxed at the same rate) to say, 22%, so you could end up owing $44K in tax. Which might be fine with you... until you forget to pay estimated taxes throughout the year and the IRS then penalizes you for not paying them a percentage of your earnings throughout the year (whereas the withholding payments from your FTE job are typically seen as those payments). All in all, there are a TON of considerations for doing this and it's not something you should just look online for free advice to fully answer.

C Corp

North Carolina

Asked on Jul 11, 2023

Can a C corp be digital?

I am an entrepreneur looking to start a new business. I am considering setting up a C corp and wanted to know if it is possible to do this digitally. I understand that C corps typically require a physical presence, such as an office, but I am interested in knowing if there are any innovative digital solutions that could make this process easier.

Answered Aug 11, 2023

There are many virtual offices and virtual mailboxes that you can use to register a corporation. Delaware does not even require those and a registered agent with an address is all that is required.

Bring Your Own Device Policy

North Carolina

Asked on Dec 24, 2024

What are the legal implications of implementing a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policy in my company?

I am the owner of a small business and I am considering implementing a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policy, where employees are allowed to use their personal devices for work purposes. However, I am concerned about the potential legal implications of such a policy, such as data security, privacy, and liability issues. I want to ensure that I am in compliance with all relevant laws and regulations, and I would like to understand the potential risks and best practices associated with implementing a BYOD policy in my company.

Jeff G.

Answered Dec 27, 2024

The best and easiest thing to do is to have a clearly-defined policy that states what you are allowing. Maybe you'll want to use MDM tools, maybe you won't. Maybe you want them to use it for just certain tasks, and maybe you'll allow them to use it for anything. Maybe there’s a tradeoff on accessibility after hours (which you also need to be careful about with non-exempt/hourly employees). You may also want to think about cost and whether you're going to contribute to someone's cell plan. All in all, it starts with figuring out what you're comfortable with doing and then building the policy and behaviors from there.

LLC Operating Agreement

North Carolina

Asked on Jun 21, 2022

I'm a real estate investor and entrepreneur looking to reorganize 2 businesses and a couple properties into 1 investment company. Is this something you can advise on?

I'm an investor and business owner with a few income producing assets that have me overwhelmed. I think consolidating everything into a holding/parent company might be the solution.
