Product Description

Now in its 25th edition, the Ernst and Young Tax Guide 2010 is completely updated and also includes access to a web site for purchasers, to find the latest tax alerts and tips.

Ernst and Young also includes the use of a web site that will contain updated changes and important information for purchasers of the E & Y Guide.

What the IRS doesn't tell us, Ernst & Young does.Year after year, The Ernst & Young Tax Guide hits national best-seller lists and garners rave reviews. The most user-friendly, most current guide available to preparing your own tax return, this essential resource contains all the information readers need to save on their taxes. The accessible format walks you step-by-step through the daunting filing process, with sample tax forms and schedules demonstrating how to fill out a tax return line by line. As the only guide that provides complete coverage of the new tax law provisions, it's no wonder The New York Times praises it as the top choice among popular tax books. The Ernst & Young Tax Guide is really two books in one. The first is the official IRS tax guide, Your Federal Income Tax, updated by the IRS for 2009 tax preparation. The second book is the Ernst & Young guide offering comments, explanations, and tax-saving tips on what the IRS tells us-and doesn't tell us. These two books have been combined in one easy-to-read volume to provide taxpayers with the most well-rounded and comprehensive tax guide on the market.

This review is from: Ernst and Young Tax Guide 2010 (For Preparing Your 2009 Taxes) (Paperback)
The Ernst and Young tax guide is my go to reference for answering tax related questions. The book explains the tax requirements in plain, easy to read English with plentiful examples of how to apply the instructions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply the best!, March 4, 2010
By Rhonda (Detroit, MI) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ernst and Young Tax Guide 2010 (For Preparing Your 2009 Taxes) (Paperback)
The EY tax guide is my go to guide for many, many years. It provides details not found in the other tax guides that I find very helpful and essential when preparing returns. The book is easy to use and is broken up in a way that makes sense of the complicated tax code. I especially like the Tax Planner, Tax Alert and Tax Saver features. It saves me the time of searching through mountains of text to find the most important bits of information. I do own other tax guides, but this book is my favorite and most used.

4.0 out of 5 stars only game in town for real people, April 18, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ernst and Young Tax Guide 2010 (For Preparing Your 2009 Taxes) (Paperback)
.
when you do your taxes most of us need help
.
you can get pub 17 free from the irs
or buy it from the govt printing office or ntis
.
if you are self employed or have to file sked c then get pub 334 also
.
you can use the 1040 instruction book
.
but most of us need more help to explain how to do our returns correctly and to get the biggest refund possible (or pay the least tax required)
.
if you are a cpa there are some really heavy duty reference sources that cost big bucks. they can deduct those as a biz expense, but it has way too many things that a normal person just does not need.
.
that leaves the lasser and ernst&young guidebooks
.
most years i have both of those plus pub 17 and the free irs 5xx 9xx publications that elaborate on pub 17 topics
.
ernst&young has been the best resource for many years now.
.
IMHO lasser covers a lot but does not do it as well or as thoroughly as e&y.
.
if you want to pay the least taxes required by law and file a legal return you should get this book as well as pub 17 and the 5xx 9xx resources.
(and pub 334 if you have to file sked c or are self employed)
.
if you are an engineer there are some additional resources you might want to get and evaluate. normally they are very repetitive from year to year but getting them once will help make you aware of what you need to know in these other books and to look at in detail.
.
all these books will pay for themselves and they are tax deductable!
.
if you only buy one get the ernst and young guide
.
