Imagine your client would like to complete a tax inversion, acquiring a foreign company in Switzerland and moving the domicile of the combined company overseas. Your client believes that this will save him or her quite a bit of money in taxes as the corporate tax rate in Switzerland is 5%. Write a memo explaining why this would or would not be a good idea. Keep in mind the document linked above. Also, provide examples of tax inversions that have occurred in the past couple of years and whether they were achieved or not.
In your paper, address these critical elements:
a. Identify sources for evaluating the appropriate tax situation.
b. Document research performed to determine if tax inversion is advisable in this scenario.
c. Apply research to tax inversion and determine best course of action.
d. Document findings and advice in a memorandum to the client. Include supporting details and examples.
