The following tax forms are typically used when selling a business: Form 8594, Asset Acquisition Statement. Form 4797, Sales of Business Property.
Form 4562 is required for the first year that a depreciable asset is placed into service. If no new assets have been placed into service in subsequent years, Form 4562 is not required unless you file Form 1120 (corporate tax return). Form 4562 must also be filed for each asset.
Definition: Allocations divide costs between different departments or activities within a company. For instance, overhead costs such as the rent and utilities are often allocated to the company's operating units. Determining accruals and allocations nearly always entails making assumptions and estimates.
The seller usually seeks to maximize amounts allocated to assets that will result in capital gains tax while minimizing amounts allocated to assets that will result in ordinary income taxes.
In simple terms you can say that acquisition is an act of one company taking over or acquiring another company's controlling interest. This can be done either by buying assets of that company or buying shares or stocks of the company.
