Taxation of Estates and Trusts

Team Tax Practice Project

Tax professionals provide tax advisory services to their tax clients and offer strategies (pre-tax filing advisory) for reducing their client’s tax burden. In Unit 4, your team will offer tax strategies for reducing Timpanogos, Inc.’s tax burden. This part of your tax practice assignment involves a review of your client’s financial information and tax situations before preparing tax returns (pre-tax filing advisory). Review the client’s business and financial information from Comprehensive Tax Return Problem 64 in Chapter 5 of your textbook.

Complete and submit the following deliverables in one Word document:

On January 16 of the client’s tax year, Timpanogos, Inc. purchased two new machines and two used machines. The company considers the purchases as significant investments. As a result, the CFO of Timpanogos, Inc. is interested in knowing how the company can maximize its capital allowance or allowable depreciation deduction before preparing the year’s tax returns. In a one-page memo, reply to the CFO of Timpanogos, Inc. and advise the company on how they can maximize their capital allowance and/or allowable depreciation deduction.
Proper documentation is a critical part of the tax professional’s work. In two pages, explain the type of documentation and details of transactions that are needed to support each of the expenses that Timpanogos, Inc incurred.
Dropbox for grading. Remember to organize your work using proper headings and APA style, and provide a minimum of three credible outside references, including at least one from the IRS’ website. Sources of credible references include the IRS, accounting firms, professional accounting associations, peer-reviewed articles, and other federal and state government websites.

Dance Research

You will research and present the What, Why and How of a dance form of your choosing. (Or an influential choreographer). The presentation – I hope- will be either connected to YOUR dance history, the dance of your ancestors or family’s culture OR a choreographer that inspires you. Consider “teaching” the class some of the dance movements associated with this form through a video ( if possible and if it is something we might not know anything about). YOU are the teacher in this moment.

Please use PowerPoint or Google slides for your presentation (at least 8-10 slides..). Please download as a PDE to post- as many links don’t work here…
Have at least one YouTube or other video platform clip (embed or provide links in your presentation) that you think best represents this dance, dancer or choreographer. We need visuals in our virtual classroom!
Assessment will be based on research, content, execution and knowledge of subject.

Write about your chosen choreographer/ Dancer/ dance form:

for people:

Give us some history- where are they from? Where did they train? With whom? What were/are their influences? What genre do they work in?

Are they still alive? Do they have a Company? Did they? What medium do they work in? Do they also perform?

Who have they influenced? Trained? Worked with? Do they teach dance? Do they choreograph?

What makes them special? Do they have a “signature”move of some kind, or something they are known for?

For dance genres:

Give us some history- where is this dance from? The culture, the place. Who dances it? When? Where?

Is it still done? By whom? ( men and women? all ages? only professionals? anyone at all?)

Is it tied to YOU in any way? To your culture?

Can you study it in a studio?

What makes it special? What is its “signature” move/ style?

What kind of music or instruments are played with it?

Please note the Grading Rubric on your Review assignments. I will take points off if this is:

Too short
Has no video clips
if you just copy/pasted from the internet
Didn’t delve deeply enough into the form or person
Don’t respond to your classmates
Are careless with typos or incorrect information

EXAMPLES: will be uploaded in the file section.

Noted: please make source to find good source and video to emphasize the topic.

Basically, can you please do dance genres since I am more familiar with that, thank you!!!!

Evolution of counseling

The development of school counseling has evolved over the years. Accrediting bodies and professional counseling associations such as ASCA, recognize the need for professional school counselors to advocate for the field of school counseling. When the school counselor’s roles are clear, this increases their effectiveness.

Imagine you are a school counselor who has been asked to speak to a group of individuals who are considering going into the field of school counseling. You are required to use presenter’s notes to convey this information to the school stakeholders.

Create a 10-12-slide digital presentation in which you address:

Describe the history and development of PK-12 school counseling programs.
Identify the ASCA School Counselor Professional Standards and Competencies that increase effectiveness as leaders, advocates, and systems change agents and how you would develop them in your role as a school counselor.
List the professional organizations, required standards and credentials, and labor market information related to school counselors.
Explain the role of the school counselor when working with families, PK-12 and post-secondary personnel, and community agencies.
Discuss how school counselors can be advocates for students and families.
The digital presentation should include presenter’s notes, title slide, and reference slides, and be supported by two to four scholarly resources.

In your explanation, assess whether affiliation has an impact on arguments for or against certification, and whether certification should exist at the entry-level, or specialty level.
Each of the above should be answered in at least 100 words. You should use at least two citations to the textbook and at least two citations to outside resources.
