Event Synopsis:
The Tax Cut and Jobs Act (TCJA), passed on December 22, 2017, has added Section 199A to the Internal Revenue Code. The new provision allows a Qualified Business Income (QBI) deduction of up to 20% to owners of Pass-Through entities. Section 199A offers significant benefits to businesses since it can decrease the business income tax rate to 29.6% from 37%. It’s critical for companies to implement tax planning strategies that would effectively optimize the deduction.
In this LIVE Webcast, a panel of distinguished professionals and thought leaders will help firms understand the important aspects of Section 199A. They will provide an in-depth discussion of the benefits and challenges companies may face in taking advantage of this deduction. Speakers will also offer best practices in developing and implementing tax planning strategies in light of the new provision.
Key topics include:
• New Section 199A Qualified Business Deduction – An Overview
• Opportunities for Businesses
• Potential Risks and Pitfalls
• Managing Legal and Regulatory Challenges
• Best Tax Planning Strategies
