FULLY UPDATED FOR THE TAX CUTS AND JOBS ACTThe bold innovative approach used by McGraw-Hill’s Taxation series is quickly becoming the most popular choice of course materials among instructors and students. It’s apparent why the clear, organized, and engaging delivery of content, paired with the most current and robust tax code updates, has been adopted by more than 600 schools across the country. The breadth of the topical coverage, the storyline approach to presenting the material, the emphasis on the tax and nontax consequences of multiple parties involved in transactions, and the integration of financial and tax accounting topics make this book ideal for the modern tax curriculum. - Storyline Approach: Each chapter begins with a storyline that introduces a set of characters or a business entity facing specific tax-related situations. Examples related to the storyline allow students to learn the code in context.
- Integrated Examples: In addition to providing examples in-context, we provide “What if” scenarios within many examples to illustrate how variations in the facts might or might not change the answers.
- Conversational Writing Style
- Superior Organization
- Real-World Focus
