"While franchises may operate as most other corporate entities, there are various characteristics that separate franchises from the rest. The same is true for taxes, as there are specific rules that need to be considered afresh when dealing with franchises, even though we are familiar with the general application thereof.
Join us for a session that looks at the taxation of franchises, and how to apply general and specific rules to them."
