  1. ok - adjusted basis is the amount after depreciation -

    2 properties sold for $425,000

    expenses of $84,000 for paying off commissions, loan etc.

    Owner intermediary received $361,000

    New property was $285,000

    Do I use the $361,000

    or the $425,000? and therefore have taxable gain of $140,000?

    Thx

  2. everything is in order - I just am having a blank moment

     

    1- what is adjusted basis? after depreciation? of old property

    2 - price of new property - can I add in fix-up costs or are those to be improvements?

    Thank  you

    all rest falls properly but my head hurts and I hate taxes right now!!

  3. Box 5 lists $4,000 (non-taxable or Roth contribution)

    but box 1 and 2a as the same so the Gross and taxable are not different for the non taxable portion in box 5

    Do I need to subtract the difference? Or assume the 1099-R is correct

    and box 5 is already taken out of the gross box 1? just wondering..

  4. need clarification please?

    Can an employee still contribute to his Simple plan thru work for 2021? His own business, so he can easily change the W-2,  - can he contribute until April 15th?

    O know the business can put in for the matching contribution - but he wants to u[p his personal and

    my take is he can do this until Apr -

    Is this correct for a Simple? thx

    WI taxed out

  5. actually - using basis to allow the -6,000 - regardless if it was 1120S or 1065 -

    I show they have a tax of $3,300

    I am not saying the software did it correctly - but I checked box 13a on the 8812 and the tax is then calculated over on pg 3 of the 8812

    Sure does not seem correct - did have income!

    when I took the basis down to $100 - I got the same answer - $3,300 tax - so now I wonder what I am missing!!

     

    MISSING the H/H Birthdate!!!  Gets the $3,300 additional credit!!

  6. over worked! 1 staff still out with Covid symptoms since Christmas - trying to do books from home as she needs to work - staff thought she did not do much - they are finding out  hmm - she did more than they gave her credit for. I prayed a 9 day Novena to St. Joseph for help and got 2 clients - homemakers whose children are back in school and they are working great!

    I thought I had someone to train over the next couple years to buy me out - but I think she was afraid to take the leap!!

    summer project -

    Did you realize that the 3 main forms - I use have added questions and now the PPP has a worksheet -

    Retention Credit has to be answered if they received the stimulus!

    EIC - if yes - go to q6!! what? and answer q13a on the 8812

    Who sits and thinks of these!!!

    and how do you charge for this...

    Best,

  7. went to a tax class that said the IRS wants the retention credit wages to offset wages, soc sec, medicare etc to offset that as well.

    First negative numbers do not work on ATX at all.

    second - how can you show negative soc sec 

    third - another article states it is like a grant so it is other income

    But if IRS is looking for it as adjusted wages - K-1 will not match wages under officer comp and W-2?

    and wages will not match W-3 nor 940, 941's??

     

    anyone have a better or correct way?

    Thank you

  8. "The parents:

    Are divorced or legally separated under a decree of divorce or separate maintenance,

    Are separated under a written separation agreement, or

    Lived apart at all times during the last 6 months of the year, whether or not they are or were married."

     

    So this came from the IRS pub 501 - it says OR

    and this couple maintained different homes in different cities.. and still do - because of schools?

    So they each could be H/H..

    I have never run across this - there has always been a date after June  or before ..
