Customer Reviews:
Great Start, For Beginners!.......2007-07-10
This book is wonderful, especially for folks without a lot of business background. It was very helpful for me when I began to interview accountants.
This book does an excellent job of educating the average person & Small Bussiness Owner on how to structure a business and to legally take advantage of the Internal Revenue Code. It gives great examples, and gives step-by-step guidelines that I actually understood and used.
There are a few typos, but overall a very informative book.
Straightforward information on common tax risks and opportunities.......2006-11-06
This clearly written book offers a handy guide to tax strategy for the rich and for those who hope to be rich. Author Diane Kennedy, a certified public accountant, provides basic information on common tax risks and opportunities. Without using burdensome jargon, she explains the fundamentals of financial reports and record keeping. Her approach is commonsense and straightforward she doesn't make outrageous promises or exotic, inapplicable recommendations. The title is slightly misleading. This book is not really about loopholes, but rather about sound planning and management - especially for business owners. It does get into the minutiae of tax law, which is subject to change, so some of the details may have a short shelf life, and much of the advice will have little applicability outside of the United States. Nonetheless, we recommend this basic guide to anyone who needs a fundamental introduction to personal financial and tax management in the U.S.
Information Packed Book! Lots of Great Tips.......2006-04-11
I thought this book was excellent! I learned quite a lot from reading it and hope to really apply what I have learned to my finances. It was jam packed with helpful tips and ideas on how to take full advantage of tax loopholes. I would recommend this to any small business owner!!
simplistic.......2006-01-23
Not very well written. Its is simplistic & somewhat condescending.
Later chapters tend to repeat basic concepts covered earlier without expanding upon the issues. There are more knowlegable authors out there that are refreshing and can effectively advance the your knowledge.
Read it and weep.......2004-03-18
This book makes a lot of assumptions. It assumes that the reader is EXTREMELY well versed in corporate tax advantages. It assumes that the reader already owns a corporation. It assumes that the book will be read with a dictionary of financial terms close at hand. (It should be. The book is poorly written, with key terms lacking adequate defenition.) I support the Rich Dad series. It is a great way for a beginner to get their feet wet. This book assumes that the reader can already swim! Even the seasoned incorporator would probably not be pleased with this book. Tell you what, if you are considering buying this book, save yourself some money and just send me ten bucks. I'll then call you (on my own dime) and summarize the book for you. Oh, what the heck, I'll do it now, for free...surround yourself with a competent team of advisors.
Customer Reviews:
Required for CFP course; not sure why.......2007-07-04
This book is difficult to use for studying for the CFP exam, because it is essentially unindexed. The topics are not very thorough, and so I found it hard to answer questions in my homework even after carefully perusing the relevant chapters. I think what is missing is enough analysis to help you APPLY the rules.
I am not sure that it would be much more useful for an employee benefits manager.
Text Book For Retirement Planning.......2006-11-10
I needed this book for a Retirement Planning class in preparation for a CFP certificate. The book was a better value than from other sources, and I received it in time for my first class. This is my third class in Financial Planning and the text seems to be aimed at the practitioner in the field; so, it is somewhat difficult. However, it is very complete.
Useful textbook.......2006-07-30
I am enrolled in the Certified Financial Planner designation program. Tools and Techniques of Employee Benefit and Retirement Planning is the textbook for the Retirement Planning module. I found this to be the most useful and practical textbook in the course. It is a book that will remain on my shelf for future reference long after I finish the designation program. The information in the textbook in written in a practical manner. It is easy to understand, well-organized and to the point.
Book Description
Unlike other areas of fund-raising, planned giving brings fund-raising professionals into contact with lawyers, accountants, financial planners, consultants, and wealthy donors. They need to be able to speak the same language as the donors and their advisors while still keeping their own organization's goals in mind. This book can help them address these and other vital issues related to starting, marketing, administering, and expanding a planned giving program.
This book is supplemented annually.
Product Description
According to the IRS, the S corporation is now the most popular entity for the closely held business. Changes in the law over the last few years have helped to make this entity an even better tax-savings structure. The bad news is that these tax relief measures are complex and confusing. The S Corporation Taxation Guide gives you a complete roadmap to all of the moneysaving strategies available, including:
Latest regulations governing sales of an S corporation
Transactions unique to S corporations and shareholders that are listed in the regulations as abusive
Circumstances under which a late election will or won't be allowed
Limitations on deductions for corporate property
And much more
Book Description
A valuable resource for students seeking a thorough understanding of recent developments in corporate and partnership taxation. Includes fundamental concepts of federal tax law, organization and capital structure of corporations, and organization and operation of partnerships. Authors discuss tax consequences of each entity and differentiate between distributions for corporations in complete liquidations and those not in complete liquidations. Contains final regulations under Section 338 (taxable stock acquisitions) and Section 704 (allocations with respect to contributed property); proposed regulations under Section 708(b) (partnership terminations); postacquisition continuity of interest; and other recent regulations.

Concise Restatement of Business Tax.......2007-06-11
Having read NOTHING in business taxation prior to the final, I used this book to cram over the course of four days. Amazingly, I received a B, which was well above the median for the course. A nice feature of this book is the casebook table that shows which parts of the outline cover which pages in each of several leading casebooks. This made my unorganized cramming sessions much more manageable. My casebook reading was covered in 89 pages with this outline. Awesome.
If it wasn't for this outline, business tax would have killed my GPA and any chances for high honors. More significantly, I actually learned a lot from those four days and have applied the principles learned at my summer job. Good luck!
This book saved my life.......2006-11-29
"The yellow book" cruised me through Partnership Tax and Corporate Tax by spoon-feeding me all relevant laws/doctrines in a clear, concise way. This is an amazing book, which was recommended to me by an LLM Tax graduate (now an attorney for the IRS) who told me that everyone in her LLM program used this book. Get the yellow book, trash your other tax textbooks-- it will make you a star.

Customer Reviews:
Informative, hard to plod through in places.......2005-03-02
The book has a lot of useful information about setting up and running small corporations.
Never Judge a Book by its Cover.......2005-01-23
This book provides vital information not usually covered in most self-publishing books and is a solid resource guide. Another confirmation that you need to read many books on your subject to familiarize yourself with the business. Areas such as how to protect your inventory by filing a UCC in the state the distributor is based, understanding the ins and outs of how distributors work, how to establish discounts and payment schedules that protect your financial structure, how to properly set-up your Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable,taxes, LLC's, S Corporations,etc. Peter Hupalo's only weak area is his cover design. Anyone this intelligent should know their strengths and weakness's, and graphic design/layout is his. His book deserves better and would appeal to more buyers if it was redesigned.
Focus.......2004-12-30
I found the book focused more on C Corporations. A few of the chapters did focus on S Corps and it answered a lot of questions I had, and also raised more questions in the process. I found it did not go into real detail on S Corp deductions, or how to handle tax liability for an owner/employee.
The Book Saved Me Money.......2004-11-25
This book is, to me, misnamed. It's really about how taxes are collected on various types of business structures. It discusses the various business organizations such as sole proprietorships, limited liability companies (LLCs), and corporations. Under corporations both C and S corporations are covered. (I can't think of a catchy title to say that, so I guess the book can stay named as it is.)
Most of the book is on the S corporation. This makes sense as most small business should probably be S corporations. The small business isn't going to attract large numbers of investors. By shifting the income of the business to an S you can often save several thousand dollars in taxes by shifting between salary and dividends or what the IRS calls earned income and passive income.
When I got the book I had a couple of questions in mind like "how much salary should I pay myself." These questions aren't answered in most "how to incorporate" type books. What I wanted was two answers, what does the law say, and what are the real rules. I got both answers quickly and easily.
For me, the information I wanted was covered in about 10% of the book, the rest of the material I either knew or didn't care about. That 10% that I needed saved me many, many times the cost of the book.
Buy it with pre-tax dollars!.......2003-08-24
This is a great read for anybody considering incorporation or investing in an existing business. The author employs dozens of examples to illustrate the key decisions involved in choosing a business structure and how to manage it. Potential downside is given equal weight with potential savings, and often neglected issues affecting minority shareholders like "dilution" and "freeze out" are given a fair hearing.
The section on pre-tax vs. post tax purchases was particularly well illustrated. Find out why a $0.37 stamp may cost you $0.25 when you buy it through your business and $0.56 when you steal it from your personal stationary drawer. The author's conservative approach to accounting was refreshing in a world of books that profess to tell you how to beat the IRS. The strategies for maximizing shareholder income in this book are based on solid, legitimate planning.
The only fault I found with the book is that the number of examples led the author to be a little too imaginative with made-up business names. However, that wasn't enough to stop me from reading it from cover to cover in less than 24 hours.
