The Gettysburg address is 269 words. The Declaration of Independence is 1,337 words. The Holy Bible is 773,000 words. However, the tax code has grown from 11,400 words in 1913, to over 7 million words today. – Author Unknown

 Ã‚ Ãƒâ€š Ãƒâ€š Ãƒâ€š  Today Person CPA Group will let you in on the biggest mistake we see taxpayers make, failing to do tax planning. Despite our best efforts to reach out to taxpayers, there are always cases where April 15th rolls around and someone gets a tax bill that causes feelings of nausea.

What you may not know is that a little planning can go a long way in keeping your taxes low. 

 Ã‚ Ãƒâ€š  When dealing with a 7 million word(and growing) rule book like the federal tax code it is more important than ever to make an effort to utilize the rules that can help you. There many exceptions and exclusions to the general rules but you have to know about them. Small business owners, real estate investors, taxpayers with dependent children, and contributors to charity or just some of the groups with provisions in the tax code that save serious money. Some of the potential strategies for these taxpayers include things like: 

  • Accelerated write offs when purchasing equipment

  • Reduced tax rate on gains when selling rental real estate
  • Favorable write offs when donating property to charity

  • Credits for child care expense
  • And much more
