The recent tax reform significantly changes Federal income taxation of individuals and small-to-mid sized businesses. Few summaries discussing the Act explain the practical implications of how these changes in law affect tax return reporting positions. This webinar, offered by two leading practitioners in Federal income tax, will summarize key provisions of the Act most likely to affect individuals and small-to-mid sized businesses and explain how those provisions “hit” the tax return. Among the provisions to be covered are:
Bill Leonardi (Padgett Business Services)
"I appreciated the clarification on home equity interest deductibility, and the comment that this provision will need clarification from the IRS because it's not at all clear how they can tell if the proceeds of a home equity loan are used for the purposes that would enable the interest to be deductible. I also appreciated some details that were presented along with examples to show how to calculate the 20% income deduction for small business owners."Eustace L Greaves Jr (Greaves Financial Services)
"A client came into the office after the webinar to pick up some paperwork. She asked how the new tax law would affect her, a Form 2106 filer. Using the matericals, I was able to show her just how her income tax preparation experience would be impacted next year. She wants me to come to her hospital and give a brief seminar about how medical personnel will be impacted by the bill."STEPHEN JORDAN (STEPHEN B JORDAN EA)
"+ §199A spreadsheet analysis very helpful. lesser of: (greater of: 50% of wages or 2.5% capital assets acquired) or 20% profit + Bonus depreciation explanation appreciated. + NOL unlimited c/f explanation useful. + itemized deductions/Std deduction explained well."Sudhir Shah (Sudhir Shah, CPA)
