Great Product. Comprehensive review of corporate taxation, with great examples, research problems. Comes with CD to do tax returns. Tax problems are in text. Great way to learn to do taxes.
Very comprehensive September 30, 2008
This a good corporate tax book, and I'm not saying that just because my professor (Raabe) helped write it. It is a very comprehensive look at partnerships, corporate, estate, and trust taxes. For anyone who plans on being a tax professional (CPA or adviser, not just someone doing taxes 101) then this is a great book and discusses all the issues. No it does not teach you how to prepare a form and it shouldn't. That is not being a professional. That is being a monkey. It teaches you how to think about the tax issues in a logical way. Learning how to fill out a tax form is done as a staff one in a big four firm. This class helps you once you are past that point and assists in actually helping your clients reduce their corporate taxes. Which is what is important and makes the money. As Raabe says, if you're not helping your client pay as little taxes as possible then you're not doing your job. There is a reason why corporations only pay 9% of the taxes the government handles despite the fact they make billions of dollars.
It is a very good book.
 Is what it is September 29, 2008

Okay so we're reading a book on TAXES people. This is not the latest and greatest thriller or murder mystery where you expect to be entertained. In fact, if you expected to be entertained by this book, then (a) you are way out of whack with reality or (2) you actually love tax related information. Basically put, this book is what it is, namely, a fairly comprehensive guide to the taxation of partnerships, estates and trusts. This is by no means a 'taxes for idiots' book where it shows the reader how to write some number on line 12 of some tax form and, if that's what you wanted or were looking for, then maybe you need the aforementioned idiots guide to taxes. Now if your in the trust business, a financial planner, a CPA or in some other industry that deals with taxes on a regular basis and your looking to gain some insight into recent developments as well as the specifics of taxes as described in the title, then this book will be helpful and I guarantee it will not spend a lot of time collecting dust on your bookshelf. Well at least not until the 2010 version. Enjoy!!
