Taxes From A To Z

Kelly Phillips ErbFebruary 27, 2011

This week, I’m kicking off my “Taxes from A to Z” series on taxgirl.

As part of the series, I’m planning to focus on tax terms that might not get much play on a day to day basis… If you’re wondering what the heck depreciation is or how to figure out when to claim insolvency, this is one series you won’t want to miss.

The whole thing kicks off tomorrow with “A” (of course). Any guesses on my topic?

    How about audit, absorption costing, accumulated depreciation, acquisition accounting, adjusted basis, AMT, at-risk (abuse and absurd may be used to describe some tax terms).
