Yahoo about to sell its Alibaba shares and incur a $16 bill Tax burden, they claim is tax free?

Any REAL tax guys have opinions on this one?

The Cliff notes version would be appreciated. The Sini version I can google later if no answer suffices

So, due to the IRS not approving or disapproving a plan, there is no answer.

Awesome Government work right there. Dont committ to anything, thus you cant get in trouble. I never said YES, I never said NO. Sounds like City Hall.

I took a single basic accounting class in college and I took one thing with me that I remember to this day. The prof said, "You can do whatever you want on a return, but if it looks like income and counts like income, the IRS considers it income."

I know the tribune tried to bury its Cub profit in the BS law about leaving 5% of ownership in an entity for X years, then pull it out and pay nothing on the whole thing. I believe thats the basis of that BS scam used by major corps.
