affiliated group

Read a random definition: lex Canuleia

A quick definition of affiliated group:

An affiliated group is a group of companies that are connected because at least 80% of each company is owned by others in the group. This group can choose to file their taxes together as one entity, called a consolidated tax return.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: An affiliated group is a chain of corporations that have at least 80% ownership by other corporations in the group. This ownership structure allows the group to elect to file a consolidated tax return.

Example: Company A owns 100% of Company B and Company C. Company B owns 80% of Company D. Company C owns 70% of Company E. These companies form an affiliated group because they are all connected through ownership. They can choose to file a consolidated tax return, which combines the income and deductions of all the companies in the group.

Explanation: The example illustrates how an affiliated group is formed through ownership. Company A owns all of Company B and Company C, and they, in turn, own parts of other companies in the group. This ownership structure allows the group to file a consolidated tax return, which can simplify the tax process and potentially lower their tax liability.

@llama: There was one guy who did it successfully last year, I'll see if I can find the post for you. Absolutely not a normal practice though -- nor should it be!

Imagine if you were trying to apply to law school and half the seats were already taken by schmucks from last year's waitlist
20:52
@crabapple: I would LOL. Real shyster move tho, you rite.
20:53
@Arianq4: 1. Move. 2. Pursue other, non legal work, then take a year after UG to work if u wish
20:54
A shyster: is a person who is dishonest or unethical, especially in the practice of law. The term is often used as a derogatory term for lawyers. pinnacle word choice imo.
@crabapple: mich puts it out as an option and said in a waitlist session this year that they want to take more people than normal this way due to app volume
it makes sense for me because I got a new opportunity for a year and figured it wouldn't hurt to ask
was there a vandy wave today? seems like a small one

@ReadyThinWerewolf: Yeah, I mean you got like Berk this year that hasn't dipped under 3.6. Some are like that.
0:46
nm they dipped under for like idk 10 fucking people.
0:46
Yeah, if you dont have at least a 3.7 it means you fucked around and didn't try hard in undergrad.
0:48
Here we will do Yale. 3 people got in lower than a 3.75. So yeah, some schools are practically unreachable without some insane soft if you don't have a good gpa.
