Not Again!,
By Eater of Books (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: South-Western Federal Taxation 2009: Corporations, Partnerships, Estates and Trusts (with TaxCut® Tax Preparation Software CD-ROM) (West's Federal ... Partnerships, Estates, & Trusts) (Hardcover)
This is yet another book from Hoffman and South Western publishing on tax LAW, not tax ACCOUNTING. This book is good for advanced coverage of corporate tax accounting, its use as an introduction to corporate tax accounting is a crime. It never tells you how to prepare a tax return, you never are asked to fill out any forms, it never instructs you how to calculate the taxes or provide walkthrough examples of the same.
This is not a taxation of corporations and partnerships 101 book, which is what a lot of colleges seem to be using it for, this is a book on corporate tax LAW for people who already know how to calculate the taxes and fill out the forms (what I need to know and paid to learn). This is 301 material "Advanced corporate tax accounting theory". Here's a "problem" assigned to me from the book. "locate the following tax services in your library and indicate the name of the publisher and whether the service is organized by topic or by Code Section". No, I will not waste my time this way. This teaches me nothing about how to calculate the taxes and fill out the forms. When you do get to problems that ask you to calculate the taxes you'll be dumbfounded since there is no place in the book that walks you through how to actually do it. Rather you have to surmise how it might be done from examples. So instead of building your skills, you spend most of your time mixing and matching numbers to try to find out how they were combined in the example to arrive at the answer and then applying that haphazard approach to your homework.

This review is from: South-Western Federal Taxation 2009: Corporations, Partnerships, Estates and Trusts (with TaxCut® Tax Preparation Software CD-ROM) (West's Federal ... Partnerships, Estates, & Trusts) (Hardcover)
Okay so we're reading a book on TAXES people. This is not the latest and greatest thriller or murder mystery where you expect to be entertained. In fact, if you expected to be entertained by this book, then (a) you are way out of whack with reality or (2) you actually love tax related information. Basically put, this book is what it is, namely, a fairly comprehensive guide to the taxation of partnerships, estates and trusts. This is by no means a 'taxes for idiots' book where it shows the reader how to write some number on line 12 of some tax form and, if that's what you wanted or were looking for, then maybe you need the aforementioned idiots guide to taxes. Now if your in the trust business, a financial planner, a CPA or in some other industry that deals with taxes on a regular basis and your looking to gain some insight into recent developments as well as the specifics of taxes as described in the title, then this book will be helpful and I guarantee it will not spend a lot of time collecting dust on your bookshelf. Well at least not until the 2010 version. Enjoy!!
