Proper Accounting for Product Sponsorship
Asked onTuesday, June 13, 2023 by KeithWe are an S-Corp Manufacturing company. We are starting to contract individuals as "sponsors" of our products. We have their W9 to provide them a 1099 at the end of the year for the total amount we sponsored them. I need to understand on the accounting side (QuickBooks Pro) how to account for the sales discount in this situation. I have currently set it up as a Marketing expense. In this way it shows the full value of the sale on our books even if we collected nothing but then that value as a marketing expense. I just need to know if that is correct or if we should account for it differently.

Tax ramifications of cash gift from family member
Asked onMonday, June 12, 2023 by DavidI'm in Virginia. After my mother passed a bit ago (she lived in Michigan), my sister sold mom's house (it had been quit claimed to my sister's name shortly prior to mom's passing) and split the proceeds evenly between we three siblings. So, I received a check for ~$20,000. My question is: what are the tax ramifications of receiving that amount? I assume it would be considered a gift from a family member? If I am going to owe a substantial amount (to VA and/or federal taxes), can I pay that in advance?
selling rental home lived in 2 years
Asked onMonday, June 12, 2023 by AnnWe purchased a home out of state in 2010 to move into later. It was a rental for 12 years (depreciated yearly) and we have now moved to AZ and live in it. If we live in it for 2 years is ALL of the appreciation (approx 350K) excluded under the 500k married filing jointly? There is about 60k of depreciation I understand is taxable and would go under income? Thx, Ann

Prepare in advance for 2023 tax filing
Asked onMonday, June 12, 2023 by RobynHello, I need to know the (estimated) amount that I need to save in order to pay the penalties when I file my 2023 taxes. Last week I was laid off and unfortunately my pension was moved into a 403b so the withdrawal incurs the penalties and I need to understand the total amount and be prepared to pay the 10% and early withdrawal penalties when they are due. If there is time: do I need to liquidate my HSA funds after being laid off since I no longer have a HDHP? Thank you for your time. ~Robyn
