CCH's 1040 Preparation and Planning Guide is the premier professional guide to preparing individual income tax returns--plus you can use the Guide to get valuable CPE credits while preparing for the coming tax return season. It is a product that includes both print and CD audio; a guide to both tax preparation and planning; and a source for both quick reference and CPE credits. It provides precise guidance on the essentials of individual tax return preparation. Legislative and regulatory changes affecting returns, recent IRS rulings and significant court decisions are all reflected and highlighted in place throughout the text in a logical and understandable manner. Changes affecting key areas like tax rates and refunds, IRAs, education tax incentives, treatment of dividends, adoption expenses, child care credit, and dozens of other "bread and butter" areas are also highlighted and explained throughout the text. New complicated provisions are presented in more detail, so preparers can readily see and understand them in the context of the 1040 form itself. Study Questions and a CPE Quizzer is included to help users obtain valuable CPE credit.
