Capital Gains and Losses: Taxation Fundamentals (Second Edition)
Author: CCH Editorial Staff

Description:

The Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003 lowered regular income tax rates and substantially changed the treatment of dividends and capital gains under the Code. As a result, converting ordinary income into capital gain can be rewarded by significant tax savings.

This course will provide the user with an understanding of the code sections governing the tax treatment of capital gains and losses, and provide a working understanding of how these rules operate. It also reviews recent legislation that impacts the tax treatment of capital gains, including the Working Families Tax Relief Act of 2004 and the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.
