个人的影响

Individual planning ideas and considerations:

  1. 不要在没有考虑是否有机会将收入推迟到2018年或将扣减加速到2017年的情况下,就提交2017年的个人或企业申报表. Lower tax rates in 2018 mean tax deductions are worth more in 2017 than 2018.
  2. Don’t forget to claim the new, higher child tax credit. Phase-out doesn’t start until joint income exceeds $400,000.
  3. Avoid the aggravation of Kiddie 税. Follow the trust tax brackets for kids’ unearned income.
  4. 2018年颁布离婚令的时间与2019年相比,可能会对夫妻双方的税收状况产生重大影响. 相应的计划!
  5. 70岁以上纳税人.那些必须从退休账户中提取最低分配的人应该考虑将这些钱直接捐赠给慈善机构,以节省额外的税收.
  6. Medical expenses are more likely tax-deductible in 2017 or 2018 than in future years. Are there expenses that can be incurred sooner rather than later?
  7. Worried about the $10,000 cap on state and local taxes? Is the property used for rental, investment or self-employment business purposes?
  8. 通过向捐赠者建议的基金捐款,将你的各项扣除项目(尤其是慈善捐款)组合起来.
  9. 你的雇主是否愿意为你支付部分或全部自掏腰包的工作费用,因为这些费用对雇员来说不再是可扣除的?
  10. Trace the use of loan proceeds to maximize potential tax deductibility. 个人报税费用是否可以分配给你的业务或租赁活动?
  11. 伤亡和盗窃损失不再可以扣除…除非它是联邦宣布的灾区. Something no one will hope for. No more penalty for failure to maintain health insurance.
  12. PA pass-through企业的所有者将他们的扣除项目逐项列出,并且已经超过了10美元,000的州和地方税收上限实际上可以通过捐款给PA EITC或OSTC项目来赚钱.
  13. Don’t be 太 quick to assume contractor status is preferable to employee. Weigh the facts and trade-offs.
  14. 仔细查看2018年的估计支付需求——考虑评估预计的纳税义务,而不是简单地使用上一年的安全港方法.

Individual/财富管理 planning ideas and considerations:

  1. 罗斯个人退休账户/401(k)可能是一个更好的选择,而不是传统的/可扣除的贡献.
  2. 考虑在税率较低的情况下,将部分传统个人退休帐户转换为罗斯个人退休帐户(或者在收入较低的年份实现税收效益最大化).
  3. No more Roth recharacterizations. 考虑时间的问题!
  4. Saving for education just became easier. Fund a 529 account and obtain PA tax deductions, 现在你可以用这笔钱去上私立小学和中学, 太.

业务规划

Business planning ideas and considerations

  1. Choice of entity considerations – why not switch to a C Corp? Make sure to consider 2nd layer of tax on dividends, how long the earnings will remain in the entity, 州税收影响(特别是对基于pa的企业)和可能的1202收益排除.
  2. Electing to change entity classification for the 2018 tax year? Form 8832 must be filed within 75 days (by 3/15/18).
  3. C公司:记得用新的21%的联邦税率重新评估递延所得税资产和负债.
  4. C Corps with profitable foreign subsidiaries – Must include in 2017 U.S. 应纳税收入未返还但从未汇回美国的外国收入总额.S. 我们是否应该选择在8年期间支付这笔额外的税收,而不是一次性付清?
  5. 去年 chance to do a net operating losses (NOL) carryback! 17年12月31日之后结束的课税年度所产生的不反对通知书,不适用于2年不反对通知书回调.
  6. 研究 & 开发(R&D) credit has been retained – can you take advantage of it? 记住,税收减免在低税率的情况下没有那么有价值,所以按比例来说,税收抵免更有利.
  7. 年平均总收入低于2500万美元的小企业——考虑调整会计方法,推迟收入或加速扣除. Possibilities include the expanded use of cash method, UNICAP例外, percentage of completion exception and requirement to keep inventory. Automatic changes can be made through extended due date of 2018 return.
  8. 我是否应该继续偿还高收益债务,因为这可能会导致年度利息支出扣减的限制?
  9. 考虑改变你的资本结构,以避免利息支出限制——尽管有不同的法律权利,也许优先股可能是一个更好的债务解决方案?
  10. 某些企业可以选择不受净利息扣除限制——这样做有意义吗? The tradeoff is losing some depreciation benefits (ADS must be used).

Pass-through deduction planning ideas and considerations:

  1. 199A:怎样才能最好地避免陷入合格beat365官方app提供者的定义?
  2. 自雇退休计划缴款进一步减少应纳税收入和可能增加199A扣减. 考虑将逐项扣减合并,以最大限度地提高第199A节的潜在利益.
  3. 你从自己的企业获得的工资是否设定在适当的水平,以最大限度地减少第199A款的扣款?
  4. 不要告诉国税局你经营的是一家合格的beat365官方app提供商企业,如果你不是! Watch out for NAICS code disclosures.
  5. 房地产行业人士:记住,你可能没有工资支出,但仍然受益于199A.
