5.0 out of 5 stars Very informative., November 3, 2006

This review is from: JK Lasser's Small Business Taxes 2006: Your Complete Guide to a Better Bottom Line (Paperback)
JK Lasser's Small Business Taxes 2006 gives the reader a comprehensive overview of what a small business owner needs to know about how to organize expenses into deductions, and what the different rules are for different types of business entities. We were particularly interested in understanding how LLCs were taxed. Since you can tax an LLC as a sole proprietorship, partnership, corporation or S-corporation (based on your particular LLC characteristics), the fact that the book covers how each of these tax scenarios works was very useful in helping us decide which status was more convenient for our business.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not really updated for 2006, January 15, 2007
This review is from: JK Lasser's Small Business Taxes 2006: Your Complete Guide to a Better Bottom Line (Paperback)
I was disappointed to find this was really a 2005 book with a 2006 cover. While I found much of what I needed to know, I had to visit the IRS website for current 2006 limits on depreciation.
