I have a 4-person Delaware LLC formed in late 2010 with income starting in 2011. We failed to file for 2011 and have an extension for 2012. What is the proper procedure for getting square with the IRS for 2011? Do we need to write a letter explaining why we failed to file, is there a specific form to file, and do we still distribute K-1s for 2011 and 2012? Should we attempt to estimate a late fee? Additionally, I found a form 8832 that we might not have filed; should we file this as well, and what is the process for amending personal returns?

I inherited a piece of unimproved land in New York in 1990 and want to sell it. My realtor suggests a price of $109,000 based on comparable sales. What information is accepted by the IRS as proof of the land's value in 1990, and will I have to pay capital gains taxes to New York and Idaho? Is there any tax break for reinvesting the sale proceeds in a home for retirement?

I am in a 2-person LLC, and my partner wants to leave. How do you determine the value of the company for the buyout? My partner is asking for 2.5 years worth of his profits, which totals $67,500 x 2.5. Is that fair?

I just found out I will be short about $60K in taxes to the IRS. I know there are payment plans with the IRS but is this my best choice? I have about $150K in equity in my house, should I use that?
