Download or read book Federal Income Tax a Contemporary Approach written by SAMUEL A. DONALDSON and published by West Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2018-08-24 with total page 1100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Completely updated to reflect the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the Third Edition of Federal Income Tax: A Contemporary Approach continues its successful integration of several modern platforms to introduce students to the federal income taxation of individuals. As before, the book takes three passes through the system, each in increasing detail. The first pass, in two short chapters, introduces the basic structure of the federal income tax through the computation of taxable income. It lets students see the overall structure early in their study and gives context to new concepts as they are introduced. The second pass, consuming two larger chapters, walks through the concepts of gross income and deductions, respectively. The final pass, consuming seven chapters, then builds on the material from the first four chapters, considering exclusions, timing issues, characterization, and advanced discussion of property transactions, personal expenses, dual-use expenses, and tax shelters. The text includes dozens of review questions, hundreds of self-assessment questions, and nearly 100 detailed problems for class discussion, all of which require students to apply Code and Regulation provisions to real-life fact patterns. The book also includes links to several instructional videos to reinforce student comprehension. Like other titles in the Interactive Casebook Series, the accompanying electronic version gives student immediate access to cited cases, statutes, and articles.

Download or read book Federal Income Taxation of Individuals written by JEFFREY L. KWALL and published by Foundation Press. This book was released on 2020-02-11 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the 25th anniversary of Jeffrey Kwall's groundbreaking The Federal Income Taxation of Corporations, Partnerships, Limited Liability Companies, and Their Owners (now in its 6th edition), Kwall has done it again with a brand-new take on personal income tax in The Federal Income Taxation of Individuals: An Integrated Approach. Part of Foundation Press's forward-looking Doctrine and Practice Series, Kwall's book offers a modern approach to income tax designed to resonate with the current generation of law students. The book fully integrates the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and, in addition to the traditional cases, contains a collection of contemporary cases with provocative fact patterns that will interest all students. In that light, the book was designed to accommodate students with different learning styles by providing explanatory text and notes, detailed examples and problems, and a myriad of text boxes offering insights, discussion questions, online references, points worth noting, and applications to the practice of law. A primary goal of the book is to expose students to practical tax problems and to heighten student awareness of quality of practice issues. This goal dovetails with the book's recurring theme that economic considerations always outweigh tax considerations. The book consists of 18 Chapters. After an Introduction (Chapter 1), Chapters 2-8 focus on Gross Income. Because tax law is a foreign subject to most law students, these early chapters explore gross income in the context of familiar economic relationships (e.g., a business owner and its employees, a donor and a donee, a lender and a borrower). Chapters 9 and 10 address Deductions. In addition to focusing on allowance provisions, these chapters integrate the consequential impact of classifying deductions as section 62 deductions, miscellaneous itemized deductions, and other itemized deductions. Chapters 11-14 are focused on Timing questions with emphasis on the tax law's treatment of time value of money issues. Chapters 15 and 16 address Tax Rates and include coverage of assignment of income issues, capital gains and losses, and dividends. Chapter 17 highlights the Alternative Minimum Tax and Chapter 18 introduces the taxation of corporations and partnerships to whet students' appetites for future tax courses. The book is ideally suited for a three-credit or four-credit introductory income tax course.

Download or read book Basic Federal Income Taxation written by William D. Andrews and published by Aspen Publishing. This book was released on 2024-02-07 with total page 1150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This perennially popular book offers the most intellectual depth of any tax casebook. Regarded as the most insightful, policy-oriented, and coherent treatment of the field, Basic Federal Income Taxation includes more of the classic, foundational cases than most other tax casebooks and provides the best available coverage of capital gains. This eighth edition, the first since the death of original author William D. Andrews in 2017, aims to update a classic while preserving its distinctive attributes. The style of the book has been retained, with its focus on cases and tax policy. New to the 8th Edition: A comprehensively revised Chapter 1, designed to equip students with the conceptual framework and policy themes they can deploy to structure thinking and assist understanding throughout the course. A reworked organization, with return of capital timing issues now addressed immediately before capital appreciation (realization and recognition); gifts, taxation of the family, and assignment of income issues have been grouped together to highlight common themes; losses and tax shelter limitations have been folded into one chapter, and the leverage and leasing materials trimmed. Numerous changes to reflect new developments—legislative, administrative, and judicial—since the publication of the last edition. The pervasive influence of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 is reflected throughout the book. Starting with Chapter 1, this edition emphasizes the distribution of individual income tax burdens across the income spectrum, from the earned income tax credit and child tax credits to the impact of capital gain rates on high-end progressivity. Benefits for professors and students: The book was developed and refined by Professor William D. Andrews, whose work initiated serious policy analysis of progressive consumption taxes and brought to light the hybrid nature of the existing federal income tax system, which is replete with compromises between accessions and consumption tax features. When law students come to appreciate that tax is concerned with fundamental issues of distributive justice—addressing who should be required to contribute to the support of our society, and in what proportions—many become engaged by the subject in a way that would have shocked their former selves. Detailed knowledge of current tax law rules is frequently rendered obsolete (sometimes before law students can graduate) by Congress’s penchant for regular extensive amendment of the Internal Revenue Code. The book gives students a conceptual foundation that is durable rather than evanescent. Understanding tensions between the tax policy criteria and partisan differences in their evaluation makes each new round of tax Code re-jiggering, if not predictable, at least readily comprehensible. Teasing meaning out of an inordinately complex statute demands more than careful reading assisted by application of default norms of construction—it requires an appreciation of objectives. The book’s exploration of history and purposes gives students the tools necessary to inform statutory interpretation, equipping them to supply valuable practical guidance to clients and courts.
