I just purchased this book to assist me with the tax issues of valuing an LLC. I have read from a variety of sources on the tax affecting issues and the models that are available since the 1999 Gross decision. I looked online at the first edition of the book and it looked like it would add to what I had read. Since the second edition is about two months old, I grabbed it instead.I am very disappointed that Pratt included little in the second edition of the book regarding the Grabowski, Mercer, Treharne, and Van Vleet models compared to what I saw in the first edition. Much of this book is soft on the Federal tax issues and redundant on the issues Pratt covers ad nauseam in other books. This is a re-arrangement of chapters with a different cover on it from other books. I would say you might pass on this one for your BV library.
Amazing and insightful, this book is a resource for appraisers and legal professionals. I had the pleasure of taken a Law of Tax Appraisals class in Law School under Judge Laro, co-author of this book, and used this book in class.
It's a good book for a forensic accounting library, Laro is a well know and respected expert for reference in reports. It's a good solid 5 plus
