Reducing Tax When Selling Business

I assume you will be selling at a profit? I think the sale and any new business are separate tax events although you might have some carryover events that would interact.

Are you selling just the business or is real estate involved? Will you be selling depreciated equipment?

I have a book called something like "How to buy a business for no cash down." by Goldman(?) I think. It is aimed at buyers, but sellers will have to consider all the same issues. If you can't find it, I can look up an ISBN.
