Description:

Alternative minimum tax (AMT) is a tax originally put in placce to prevent the wealthy from reducing their tax bill through certain deductions. The intent was to keep income tax at a reasonable rate for each taxpayer at their income level, however, because the AMT exemption amount has not kept up with the cost of living, this tax has crept down and now impacts those in lower income tax brackets. This e-book focuses on AMT adjustments and how to complete the necessary forms for working with AMT.

• Identifying AMT adjustment and preference items.
• Distinguishing between temporary and permanent AMT adjustments.
• The tax consequences for regular tax and AMT when incentive stock options (ISOs) are exercised and sold.
• Calculating the different depreciation amounts for regular tax and AMT.
• Determining if a taxpayer is insolvent.
• Completing Forms 6251, Alternative Minimum Tax – Individuals, and 8801, Credit for Prior Year Minimum Tax – Individuals, Estates and Trusts.
