Overview

Description:

This book is for preparing 2024 taxes. Determining a taxpayer’s basis in an asset is key when calculating the gain or loss on a sale of the asset, depreciation, casualty losses and other items necessary to complete their return. Unfortunately, the process of finding an asset’s basis is one that can cause confusion among tax professionals. This course provides the tools necessary for establishing a taxpayer’s initial basis in an asset and how that basis is adjusted. It will also discuss common situations where it is necessary to establish the taxpayer’s basis in an asset to calculate loss or gain in the disposition of property, determine depreciation allowed and address other common tax situations.
