Company management

Manager
Please indicate whether the company will appoint the member as sole manager (standard) or someone else as assistant manager. An LLC's manager/assistant manager has authority to handle the day-to-day responsibilities of the business. Unless circumstances suggest that a separate manager may be advisable, we typically recommend that a single-member LLC be managed solely by the member.
Tax distributions
Required
Optional
Please indicate whether the company will be required to make a distribution to the member to cover any tax liability related to income from the company.

Promise of future contribution
In exchange for membership in the company, an initial capital contribution should be made.

Contributions may be in the form of money, property, services, a promise to make such contributions in the future, or some combination of the above.
Contribution amount

A contribution of property may have potential tax consequences based on the difference between the property's value when contributed and when acquired. Please indicate the current dollar value of the property if purchased at a fair market price.
Cost Basis

Services description
