I was paid twice for the same invoice from a company, and they said they don’t want the money back. If I keep the money, will I incur some sort of IRS penalty, and what would be the exact name of the violation? Additionally, would it be a tax code violation on the part of the company for their negligent bookkeeping, and what penalties might they face?

We converted a Californian S-corp to an LLC to allow one of the partners to leave the USA. This was done without an F-reorg. Do we need to pay both Federal and California CGT on gains in asset value? Additionally, would we lose federal QSBS opportunities due to the restructure?

I'm the owner of an LLC taxed as an S Corp and do accounting on a cash basis. In 2021, I made payments classified as distributions and overdid it, resulting in my expenses exceeding my revenue. I'm concerned this might flag an audit when I file my taxes. The cash was available for the distributions at the time because I didn't pay any payroll taxes until 2022. How can I rectify this situation and avoid potential audit flags?
