Summary and Analysis of Fiscal Year 2015 U.S. Budget Proposal

Complimentary: www.cch.ca/2015USBudget

On March 4, 2014, President Obama released a $3.9 trillion proposed fiscal year (FY) 2015 federal budget, with a mix of expanded child, family and education tax credits as well as some curbed tax preferences for higher income individuals and businesses. Funding for the proposed tax breaks would come from, among other proposals, taxing carried interest as ordinary income, extending payroll taxes to cover certain distributions from professional service companies, and restricting the availability of like-kind exchange treatment for real estate transactions. In conjunction with the budget, the Treasury Department also released its Green Book, providing explanations of the proposed budget.

CCH's Tax Briefing: Fiscal Year 2015 Budget Proposals provides you with a summary of the budget proposal.

SEC Disclosures Checklists, (2014 Edition) W/ CD-ROM

Author: Paul A. Mackey, CPA

SEC Disclosures Checklists is a practical guide designed for CPAs who service public companies, whether internally or externally. It identifies disclosure requirements for financial statements, Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A), and the SEC rules mandated by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. This product is both for preparers and reviewers of financial statements that will be included in 1933 or 1934 Act domestic filings, including those on Forms 10-Q, 10-K, and 8-K.

The checklists are organized by question, disclosure requirement and reference source. First, the reader is prompted with a question, such as "Does the company have restrictions on its cash?" If the answer is yes, the reader proceeds to the disclosure requirement. The reader can also obtain more in-depth information by reading the excerpts from SEC reference material that is provided in the book and supports the requirement.

Once the reader is satisfied that the company has met the disclosure requirements, the response to the question and the workpaper reference can be entered into the book or on the checklist, which is available on the free, companion CD included with the volume. The completed checklists can be placed in quarterly or annual workpapers to provide support for review and compliance procedures.

Regulation of Corporate Disclosure, Third Edition

The Regulation of Corporate Disclosure, Third Edition is a complete and up-to-date handbook on the issue of corporate disclosure, covering the impact of the federal securities laws on both informal communications and the process of communicating with shareholders.

The third edition expands topics previously covered, addressing the legal issues and practical concerns surrounding implementation of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010. The book also has an in-depth treatment of management’s discussion and analysis (MD&A), something that, although appearing in required SEC filings, involves many of the same difficult and complex issues raised by the informal disclosure process. Also addressed are: SEC reforms of the periodic reporting process; issues pertaining to stock research analysts and conflicts of interest; and various relevant corporate governance requirements and their disclosure implications.

Critical areas analyzed include:

  • Disclosure requirements and anti-fraud provisions
  • The duty to disclose
  • Dissemination
  • Issues involving materiality
  • Disclosure of bad news
  • Negotiations
  • Dealing with analysts
  • And much more!

Principles of Business Taxation (2014) (U.S.)

The CCH Principles of Business Taxation course approaches the study of taxation from the perspective of the student who will become a business person faced with decisions that are inevitably affected by tax considerations. This perspective leads to a very different coverage in this textbook - coverage that is useful for accounting, finance and general business majors. The new edition focuses on the central concepts that build our tax framework and avoids small exceptions.
Many items that pertain specifically to businesses (for example, inventory valuation issues) usually not discussed in a traditional undergraduate tax textbook are covered in this book. Although so many of the exclusions, deductions, and credits apply equally to individual and corporate taxpayers, this book focuses on the business perspective.
 
?    PART I: OVERVIEW OF TAXES AND THE FEDERAL INCOME TAX SYSTEM
?    PART II: FEDERAL TAXATION OF BUSINESS INCOME AND DEDUCTIONS
?    PART III: TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING BUSINESS PROPERTY
?    PART IV: CALCULATING TAX LIABILITY AND TAXES OWED
?    PART V: SPECIFIC BUSINESS ENTITY ISSUES
?    PART VI: Taxation of International Transactions

Principles of Business Taxation (2013) (U.S.)

Available: March 2012

Approaches the study of taxation from the perspective of the student who will become a business person faced with business decisions that are inevitably affected by tax considerations. This perspective leads to a very different coverage in this textbook. The new edition focuses on the central concepts that build our tax framework and avoids small exceptions and details to ensure that the student can confidently master the critical underpinnings of federal taxation. It abandons minutia that not only affects a very small number of taxpayers, but also tends to change often.

Many items that pertain specifically to businesses (for example, inventory valuation issues) usually not discussed in a traditional undergraduate tax textbook are covered in this book. Although so many of the exclusions, deductions, and credits apply equally to individual and corporate taxpayers, this book focuses on the business perspective. An advantage to this approach is that most of the students who take only one course in taxation will learn how businesses are taxed and, in turn, will have a better appreciation for how taxes affect business decisions.

While the focus is on concepts and how taxes affect business decisions, individual income taxation is not abandoned. After all, many core tax concepts apply to individuals as well as businesses, and this book is not shy in pointing out such application. It also includes a special chapter on individuals (sole proprietorships) and one on pass-through entities that tie together the underlying threads concerned with these taxpayers throughout the text.

1. OVERVIEW OF TAXES AND THE FEDERAL INCOME TAX SYSTEM
2. FEDERAL TAXATION OF BUSINESS INCOME AND DEDUCTIONS
3. TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING BUSINESS PROPERTY
4. CALCULATING TAX LIABILITY AND TAXES OWED
5. SPECIFIC BUSINESS ENTITY ISSUES
