LLC tax and ownership questions
Can someone help me with the following two questions?
1) If you set up an LLC (with an EIN from IRS and approval from state) but it turns out you don't have any business during the year, how do you report that for your federal and state tax return in the following year?
2) How do you change ownership of you LLC for at both federal (IRS) and state levels?
Thank you!

1) You report $0 income, or any loses if you did have expenses for the business. The filing, it depends on how you are taxed, sCorp, disregarded entity, etc.
2) I don't understand the question.
Ultimately, just talk to your tax advisor / CPA. They can provide tax advice and tell you what and how to go about it, it won't be hard, they do this all the time for a living.
