Product Description
This casebook provides detailed information on federal income taxation, with specific assignments to the Internal Revenue Code, selected cases, and administrative rulings from the Internal Revenue Service. The revised and updated Fourteenth Edition covers all recent legislation, including changes in statutory deferred compensation and medical savings accounts, personal and dependency exemptions, and charitable contributions. The book is updated to include 2006 legislative developments. The new edition of the casebook also contains coverage of the final rules on capitalization of intangibles, the Supreme Court's decision in Commissioner v. Banks, brief coverage of the report by the President's Advisory Panel on Federal Tax Reform, and substantially revised text on computation of tax liability, including classification of taxpayers, tax rates, and tax credits.

 Buy the 13th edition if you need the 14th! January 5, 2008
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Hey everybody! We're all looking for a little break on the price of textbooks right? Sometimes buying an old edition is a little scary b/c you never know how far off it will be from the new one? Well, this is your lucky day b/c I took the plunge and sprung for the old edition. Guess what--The old edition is, at most, 3 pages off from the 14th all the way through chapter 18 (b/c that's as far as we got, but I'd be it's the same the rest of the way too!). Granted, problems were switched around, though rarely, and maybe the numbers in the problems would be different, again, rarely, but it literally took me just minutes to update entire "parts" (chunks of chapters). If you're looking to save a buck, buy the 13th edition and spend an extra few minutes in your school's library. Happy shopping! This is definitely one of those times it's worth it.
Easy to use for both a practitioner and a layman November 7, 2006

This was written by three of my former professors at the School of Taxation at the University of Florida. The text mirrors why I enjoyed their classes and took 38 hours under them. It puts a rather complicated IRS Code interpretation into easy to understand practical applications.
 Difficult To Understand The Main Issues June 19, 2005
9 out of 10 found this review helpful
This text includes cases that involve a lot of the accounting numbers without a lot of explanation about the tax principles that were used in deriving the numbers. The best supplement I have found is the Eighth Edition Federal Income Taxation supplement by Stephen Lind and David Hudson put out by the Black Letter Series by the West Group recommended by my professor which was written by one of the authors of the casebook.
