This is kind of an odd question but I'll try to explain it as clearly as possible.
Basically what I want to do is have one business, we'll call it company A sell advertising to company B that I would also own. Company A can get advertising at a discounted rate say 80% off normal price through a marketplace. If company B is buying it at the normal price, how would the taxes work for both companies? I'm seeing this as a win win if the advertising was profitable for company B while I would still profit at company A from selling the advertising at full price.
Would there be a certain business structure that would be beneficial if this is something I'd like to pursue? Just trying to get some advice from others that may have some experience in selling services from one business you own to another that you also own.
