1. What is tax planning?
How business owners can reduce their taxes by 50% or more:
- Home office helps vehicle mileage INCREASE
- Employing children or parents
- Buying or selling businesses
- Real estate accelerated depreciation
- Reasonable Compensation Reports to limit self-employment taxes
- Spouse as employee, business partner, and/or landlord
- Fringe benefits
- If you have a Company or Corporation
- SSN vs EIN
- You are not the company
- The company is not you
- State Statute vs Court Precedence
- Civil Suits have “Preponderance of the Evidence” Standard
- Criminal has “Beyond All Reasonable Doubt” Standard
- Corp Veil MUST be maintained AND documented – it’s the LAW!
- If it is a law to have and document meetings…
- Then where you hold these meetings is up to you and the IRS allows you to take the tax deduction for these meetings
- Everything must be “Reasonable and Customary” for the IRS
