In 2015 Ebay, Inc. spun off PayPal, Inc. its 100% owned subsidiary.
Answer the following about this spin off:
A) What is the business (nontax) reason(s) for this split up? (Do a google search to find articles regarding this spin off)
B) What were the terms of the deal? That is, how were the Ebay, Inc shareholders compensated?
C) This appears to have been a Type D-Divisive Reorganization. What are the requirements to ensure that this type of reorganization is a “tax-free” reorganization. Be sure to include an in-depth discussion of the IRC Section 355 requirements.
D) Do you think that Ebay, Inc qualified for tax free reorganization treatment when it spun off PayPal, Inc.? Explain your answer in detail.
E) Taxpayers may use the tax-free provisions of corporate reorganizations under IRC 354-368 to avoid the taxable provisions of corporate liquidations. The courts have formulated three doctrines to help determine whether a business transaction is truly a tax-free reorganization. Name these three doctrines and describe how these doctrines are applied to business transactions labeled as “tax-free reorganizations”.
F) Blake, a shareholder of Ebay, Inc stock owned 1,000 shares of Ebay, Inc (before the spin off). Blake’s cost basis in the 1,000 Ebay shares was $21,000. The number of shares Blake will receive in PayPal after the spinoff is based on the ratio you determined in “B” above. In addition, Blake, for whatever reason will also receive $2,500 cash. Blake owns less than 50% of either Ebay, Inc or PayPal Inc. The fair market value of the Ebay shares after spin off was $50 per share and the fair market value of the PayPal shares after spin off was $30 per share. What are the tax ramifications, if any, to Blake on the PayPal shares and cash of $2,500 received by him upon spin off? If Blake needs to report income from the spin off, how much is the income to be reported and what is the character of the income? What is Blake’s basis in his Ebay, Inc and PayPal, Inc. shares that he owns after the spin off?

Am new to accounting so i want the paper to look complete and done well but not advanced (am in my third year Bachelors) also i will need a darft to show my instructor on 14th of May

Hello, thank you for your help thus far.
I would like you to further extend the depth of the paper you wrote. I would like an additional 10 sources to be added to the literature review. Additionally, instead of just added completely new arguments/ paragraphs, you can also simply extend the arguements you have already made with more in depth examples and additional references. For example, you have written the following:
“The influence of culture as a barrier to lean implementation is further analyzed by Bakke and Johansen (2019), who argue that employees and managers may be unwilling to think and act based on the requirements of lean practices. For example, they may be reluctant to think of organizational processes in terms of reducing waste and customer value. ” Here you given an example of how they are reluctant, but you can extend it by finding out “why” they are reluctant (and use an additional source or the same source to drive the point home).
Another example is here:
“. Additionally, Nguyen and Ngo (2023) indicate that further barriers to lean implementation include the costs. Technologies to support the application of lean principles in organizations are costly, which hinders the effective implementation of lean practices.” Here you could given a rough ball number from the paper you are referencing to show how expensive it is maybe.
With the added word count, you can make the introduction and conclusion more detailed perhaps. And maybe go further into the relevance of this research, and why companies should care about improving accounting practices.
Also could you perhaps make more reference to the financial reporting standards of IFRS when talking about the effect of lean accounting on this standard. what are the principles that IFRS requires companys to follow or what are the qualitative and essential characteristics of the information reported to comply to this accounting standard and does lean accounting make it easier to comply or harder? These characteristics are listed in the IFRS reference you used in the paper.
If anything is confusing or you need more guidance please tell me.
Since having to be in hospital, you have been such a great help. Thank you again.
