Pat Garverick's Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017

On December 22, 2017 President Trump signed into law the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA).  The major overhaul of our tax system will lower income tax rates for individual and corporate taxpayers and introduce a new 20% deduction for qualified business income for sole proprietors and pass-through entities (starting in 2018). The cornerstone of this course is the comprehensive discussion of the newly enacted income tax provisions affecting individuals and businesses.    

This session will extensively cover the newly enacted income tax provisions of the TCJA affecting individuals and businesses (i.e., sole proprietors, C & S Corporations and partnerships/LLC) laws.  Each participant will receive the most up-to-date comprehensive reference manual on this subject.  Topics include but are not limited to:

 

  • 20% deduction for qualified business income for sole proprietors and pass-through entities (New IRC §199A)
  • Individuals - reduction to the income tax rates and modifications to the AMT and kiddie tax calculations
  • C corporations - reduction to the income tax rates, AMT repeal and modifications to the dividend received deduction
  • Partnerships -  technical termination rule repeal and §743 substantial built-in-loss changes
  • S Corporations - new distribution ordering rules for eligible terminated S corporations
