Taxing Shared Economies of Scale

Modesty probably prevents him from posting this himself, but Contributing Editor Bradley T. Borden (Washburn) has an article, Taxing Shared Economies of Scale,forthcoming in the Baylor Law Review (Vol. 61) (SSRN). 

The IRS and courts have concluded that sharing economies of scale satisfies the joint-profit-motive test and that arrangements with a joint-profit motive are tax partnerships. Relying on technical analysis and economic theory, this Article argues, however, that if parties integrate resources without integrating all relevant parts of the production process, they often should not come within the definition of tax partnership.
