Christopher Sullivan presents at COST’s 2014 Income Tax Conference Spring Audit Session at The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs, Colorado on April 29, 2014.  His presentation, “Unitary Combined Returns: Who’s in and Who’s Not”, focuses on the expanding number of states adopting combined reporting.  While taxpayers are finding that state statutes and filing requirements are increasingly different, the session explains and examines (1) complex combined reporting concepts; (2) combined reporting regimes; and (3) practical ideas for making combination work for companies, including elective consolidation. COST is a nonprofit trade association consisting of over 600 multistate corporations engaged in interstate and international business.  COST’s objective is to preserve and promote equitable and nondiscriminatory state and local taxation of multijurisdictional business entities.
