Let me give an example of the situation I'm thinking of. Say I have a business that brings in $10 million / year. Before salaries it costs $1 million / year to operate the business. If I give myself a $9 million / year salary, am I allowed to say I don't have a profitable business? I'm sure the IRS have regulations against this?
