What Los Angeles Business Owners Face

State Tax Overview

Highest state income tax in the US at 13.3% top rate. Very high SALT state. Significant demand for tax optimization.

High SALT Burden
Local Business Taxes

LA city gross receipts tax applies to most businesses based on revenue (rates vary by business type, ~$1.01-$5.07 per $1,000 gross receipts).

Los Angeles Client Example

An LA-based medical practice group doing $5.1M in revenue was paying over $680,000 in combined taxes. After PTET election, entity restructuring with a management company, and a cash balance plan, first-year savings totaled $198,000.
