IRS Form 1040 Preparation: Gross Income

Gain a better understanding of the issues related to tracking and reporting taxable gross income on IRS Form 1040.

U.S. taxpayers need to comply with U.S. tax law based on tax reporting requirements that consider all sources of worldwide income. Proper recordkeeping and classification of income are necessary to identify gross income and are also necessary to qualify for exceptions and exclusions to compute taxable income. This topic will provide you with an overview of the issues related to identifying and reporting gross income, as well as considering any income categories that provide adjustments, allowances, and deductions that reduce taxable income under U.S. tax law. The material will also review current IRS exam practices and recent tax legislation.
