Tax deductions? I'm constantly amazed at how most people (including MBA's) misunderstand cost/benefit analysis. If there's no quantifiable benefit to relinquishing ownership then even the small cost of preparing the document to do that makes the cost/benefit ratio prohibitive. Yet, I've seen MBA's use equally unquantifiable costs to offset known benefits for other decisions-so why go the other way on this decision? Probably office politics involved but I have no idea what they are.
