It may also influence the values recorded for certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The purpose of this article is to discuss the accounting, tax and valuation considerations relating to the tax structure of a business combination (i.e., where the assets or entity acquired meets the definition of a business as defined in ASC 805, Business Combinations).
