Frequently Asked Questions about a tax Plan
What is a tax plan?
A Tax Plan provides peace of mind and an opportunity to minimize your tax liability. A Tax Plan consists of reviewing business and personal financial documents used to compute estimated tax liability. The Plan will provide insightful information that allows you to make business decisions that create additional tax deductions or the deferral of revenues to reduce your tax liability. We will develop multiple scenarios for you to visualize the effect of the various strategies we are proposing. It is critical to act on the strategies selected before year end because after December 31 it is merely history. This process is actually the most important step to producing a quality tax return. We will complete the process with a meeting to discuss the plan to produce the best possible outcome.
Is getting a tax plan only beneficial for businesses or is it beneficial for individuals as well?
A Tax Plan is very beneficial for individuals who have complex tax returns. If you have a sole proprietorship it is basically reporting business activity in your personal tax filing that has the same complexities as an actual business tax return filing. You would need a plan to compute the tax liability being generated from the business activity. You have harvesting of losses, non-cash deductions, rental properties, passive activity income(losses) from K-1s, and the tax attributes of other personal investments that create the need for a plan. Peace of mind and reduction of your tax liability is still the ultimate goal of the process, business or personal.
How would you reduce my taxes?
By preparing a plan and gathering your financial documents we can clearly see your business and personal activity. We look for methods to accelerate expenses, defer income, or identify investment opportunities that will allow for minimizing your taxes. This process will be completed before year-end to allow for the implementation of the identified strategies. Being organized, aware, and proactive will assist with lowering your tax liability.
