This 3-day corporation and partnership course continues with Taqueria Victoria. The taqueria is in the second year of business and has a loss. What do you do with a loss on the tax return?
Prerequisite: General tax preparation knowledge and Level I Corporations and Partnership Course are required.
Day 1: C-Corporations
Level two will advance C corporations issues and treatment. We will cover issues on paying income tax liability and estimated payments. We will also take a closer look into different issues affecting Net Operating Losses. Schedules C, J, K, L, M-1 and M-2 will be covered line by line.
Day 2: Partnerships
This day will focus on complex and mixed partnerships, we will discuss the implications of selling partnership assets both for gains and losses; we will see in detail Guaranteed Payments for both Service and Capital. We will review all forms referred to on form 1065, including the new forms K2 and K3. We will also prepare a tax return based on the sample financial statements using Drake Software for a partnership and one partner’s personal return to demonstrate the use of UPE.
Day 3: S-Corporations
We will take our level I example and introduce more complex issues surrounding S corporations shareholders, their reasonable salary and K1 income, and how distributions as taxed. We will determine the ordering rules for basis adjustments, compute the shareholder's stock basis, and recognize the difference between taxable and nontaxable fringe benefits for S corporations.
