The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA) had a tremendous impact on commercial real estate, including liberalizing the depreciation provisions. Bonus depreciation was expanded and increased from 50 to 100 percent for qualifying assets placed in service beginning after September 27, 2017, through December 31, 2022. After December 31, 2022, the deduction percentage for bonus depreciation began decreasing by 20 percent per year and would have been fully phased out after 2026. Thanks to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) passed in 2025, 100% bonus depreciation is now available on new and used assets.

Companies often offer stock options as an additional form of compensation to attract and retain the best talent. Used appropriately, stock options can generate significant wealth, yet many employees are unfamiliar with how stock options work and why options serve as a valuable opportunity for employees to establish and grow their wealth. Unfortunately, employees who receive stock options are often unaware of their inherent risks. Research has shown that over 76% of employees have never exercised their stock options. Almost half of these individuals (48%), say they held off on selling their options due to fear of making a mistake. This course provides accounting and finance professionals with a broad overview of employee stock options. The webinar is designed to help participants better understand the fundamentals behind these investments and, in turn, better advise their clients.
Employee vs. Independent Contractor: Achieving Success in a Worker Classification Audit
Available Until
On-Demand Webcast
2.00 Credits
Member Price: $89
The IRS believes, perhaps with some justification, that many workers classified as independent contractors are actually employees and should be treated as such for tax purposes. The result is that worker classification audits are frequent and often costly for business clients, both in terms of time as well as money expended. This program prepares accounting and finance professionals to assist their clients with worker classification audits, and to avoid them if possible, by discussing and explaining the circumstances under which workers will most likely be characterized as employees or as independent contractors. The program also deals with the first line of defense against the IRS in worker classification audits — Section 530, as well as the common law factors distinguishing an employee from an independent contractor. This program also explores the IRS Voluntary Classification Settlement Program and discusses whether a practitioner should advise a client to request admission into this program.
