A 12-point tax return review is a great method for identifying potential, current, and future year, planning opportunities. A tax return is the most accurate documentation that people have in terms of income and taxes paid. Our Tax Planning services present the information in the most helpful way possible, helping you to identify actionable tax strategies. 🔹 Marginal Tax Rate: The marginal tax rate is the tax rate paid on the next dollar of ordinary income, so it gives us an idea of which tax bracket you are in and assists us in tax planning, such as whether we should take an IRA distribution in a “low-income year.” 🔹 Average Tax Rate: The average tax rate is arrived at by dividing the total tax paid by total income. This helps us to better understand your overall tax picture. 🔹 Carry Forward Losses: Carry forward losses move your capital losses to a future year to reduce future tax liabilities. 🔹 IRMAA Surcharges:  Medicare Income-Related Monthly Adjustment Amount (IRMAA) is the extra surcharge based on income and added to your medicare premiums. 🔹 Capital Gains: Long-term capital gains are taxed at a more preferential rate than your ordinary income, which is helpful when selling stocks. 🔹 Qualified Dividends (Of Total Dividends): Qualified dividends are dividends that are taxed at capital gains rates as opposed to your ordinary income rate, which is generally higher. The higher the percentage of qualified dividends to total dividends, the more tax-efficient your portfolio is. 🔹 Roth Conversion Opportunities: Have you considered a Roth conversion to achive tax-free and RMD-free income in retirement? We use industry-leading technology to find the optimal Roth conversion amount that would allow you to build your Roth balances and fill your current marginal tax bracket “bucket." 🔹 Itemized Vs. Standard Deduction: Did you take the Standard Deduction when taking an Itemized Deduction could have been more beneficial for you? We consider planning strategies (such as "bunching") and we look to make sure Itemized Deductions are taken when appropriate. 🔹 Net Investment Income Tax (NIIT): The NIIT applies to taxpayers with MAGI over $200,000/$250,000 (single filers/married filers). This 3.8% tax is applied to the lesser of investment income or the amount over the MAGI threshold and often comes as a surprise to higher-income clients. 🔹 Qualified Business Income (QBI) Deduction: The 2017 Tax Cut & Jobs Act (TCJA) includes a 20% tax deduction for pass through businesses (subject to some requirements). 🔹 Phaseouts: There are fifty tax credits available, but they are subject to a variety of income phaseouts. 🔹 Review of Credits and Deductions: We believe you should be aware of your income as well as all of the tax deductions and tax credits you claimed.

This is such an important tip. You will thank yourself for doing this at the start and when you are ready for an accountant they will thank you too. Plus the IRS mandates you keep your personal and business transactions separate for tax reporting purposes. Also, you want to properly measure the performance of the business and if you have personal items mixed in that distorts the numbers. If you have already started the business it's not too late to turn things around and operate as a true business. ⠀ ⠀ Contact us today if you need help with this process! #bookkeepingtips #bookkeeping #bookkeepingsoftware #accountingsoftware #businessaccounting #businessbookkeeping #quickbooks #wave #hubdoc #netsuite #zohobooks #myob #businessgrowth #virtualassistant #remoteaccounting #remoteaccountingservices #remotebookkeeping #remotebookkeepingservices #payroll #taxtime #taxseason #taxaccountant #payrollmanagement #smallbusiness #smallbusinessupport #bizsquares #transaction #creditcard
