U.S. and International Taxation for Business
In this Specialization, you’ll build job-relevant U.S. and international taxation skills for accounting, finance, and cross-border business work. You’ll begin by examining the U.S. federal income taxation of business entities, including corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies (LLCs), and Subchapter S corporations. You’ll analyze how tax rules affect entity formation, operations, distributions, reorganizations, and liquidation, while evaluating the tax implications of different business structures and elections.
You’ll then explore state and local taxation across the U.S., including nexus, limits on state taxing power, and the allocation and apportionment of income for multistate activity. Finally, you’ll analyze cross-border transactions and core international tax concepts that drive planning and compliance, including sourcing rules, transfer pricing, CFC/Subpart F, foreign tax credits, and policy-driven regimes that shape outbound and inbound activity.
Through applied, scenario-based practice, you’ll work through realistic tax problems involving entity formation, partnership taxation, shareholder distributions, multistate operations, and international transactions. By the end of the Specialization, you’ll be able to evaluate business tax consequences across domestic and cross-border contexts and apply tax rules to practical planning and compliance scenarios.
