About the Course
Introduction
This CLE/CPE webinar will provide tax counsel and advisers a detailed analysis of available business income tax planning strategies in light of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) and other recent regulations. The panel will discuss key provisions under the OBBBA, including qualified business income, state and local tax deductions, qualified small business stock, bonus depreciation, R&D deductions, and other items and their impact on business tax planning.
Description
The enactment of the OBBBA provides significant opportunities and challenges for business income tax planning. The new legislation makes certain aspects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act permanent while also making key additions that tax professionals must understand to effectively implement planning strategies for taxpayers.
The OBBBA provides businesses with 100% bonus depreciation for eligible business costs and assets, immediate research and development expensing for domestic activities, enhanced cost segregation, and other key items impacting business income tax planning strategies.
In addition, individual tax benefits for business owners, such as the enhancements to the QBI deduction, higher SALT deductions, and other items, provide an opportunity to maximize tax benefits.
Tax professionals must be aware of key tax rules under current tax law as they relate to business income tax planning and avoid potential pitfalls relating to timing issues, changes to certain deduction limits, and compliance requirements.
Listen as our panel discusses key provisions under the OBBBA, bonus depreciation, R&D deductions, cost segregation, and other items and their impact on business tax planning.
