Merger and Acquisition (M&A) activity has increased over the last few decades and national and regional accounting firms are heavily involved in the transactions. It is to the organization's benefit to receive expert recommendations in formulating the transaction to minimize or avoid tax liability.

Using the Internet, RIA, or other credible tax sources, find a case, article, Web site, company report, or other reliable data that discusses M&A activity for the organization, including such information as the type of reorganization, why the transaction occurred, how it was carried out, and the tax ramifications.

Write a summary of your findings, including the citation for your resource.
