Abstract

Through careful, advance planning, taxes can be minimized, and the burden of taxation can be satisfied. When done right, tax planning is a broad-based, continuous, and dynamic process. David, Abby, and other executives and entrepreneurs should follow the “Ten Commandments of Tax Planning” to optimize their after-tax results: optimize the deferral of income; maximize and accelerate deductions and credits; plan for tax withholding and estimated taxes; coordinate debt and taxes; understand and plan for the difference between ordinary income and capital gains; maximize the after-tax value of home ownership; consider taxes when making investment decisions; take advantage of tax-advantaged ways to pay for education; beware of all types of income-based taxes, including employment taxes; and maintain good tax hygiene.
