The Importance of a Financial Plan: A Roadmap for Every Phase of Life

7/21/2023

 
Picture
At Cornbelt Financial, we believe that having a comprehensive financial plan is essential for building a strong foundation and achieving your financial goals. Whether you're just starting out on your journey to adulthood or preparing for retirement, a financial plan provides guidance and peace of mind. 
 
Let's explore the four phases of life where a financial plan can make all the difference:
  • Welcome to Adulthood: Often overlooked due to a lack of knowledge or affordability, this phase is crucial for setting a solid financial foundation. During this time, we focus on education, implementing good financial habits, goal setting, and making informed decisions. The most valuable asset at this stage is time. By starting early, you can leverage the power of compounding and secure a brighter financial future.
  • Life Events: Life is full of significant changes, such as getting married, buying a home, receiving a promotion, or having a child. These milestones come with new financial responsibilities and opportunities. Our financial planning services help you navigate these life events by assessing your current situation, aligning your financial goals, and ensuring a smooth transition. We'll work closely with you to create a tailored plan that fits your evolving needs.
  • Mid-Life Evaluation: This phase is often marked by a realization that retirement is approaching, and it's time to assess your financial position. Whether you've fallen behind on your goals or need to make adjustments for the remaining working years, our team can help. We'll evaluate your current financial standing, identify areas for improvement, and develop strategies to ensure you stay on track. Our mid-life evaluation provides peace of mind and a renewed sense of purpose as you plan for your future.
  • Pre-Retirement & Retirement: As retirement draws closer, it's crucial to have a clear vision of what lies ahead. Our financial planning services focus on answering important questions such as: Can I retire? What lifestyle changes may be necessary? How should I plan for retirement? Our goal is to provide you with a holistic retirement plan that brings confidence and clarity to your golden years.
 
At Cornbelt Financial, our financial planning services encompass a range of essential elements to ensure a comprehensive approach:
  • Investment Advisory Analysis: Determining your risk tolerance and aligning it with your existing investments.
  • Balance Sheet Consolidation: Assessing your assets and liabilities, including planning for held-away assets.

Identifying Tax Phishing Threats

7/10/2023

 
Picture
Identifying tax phishing threats is crucial to protect yourself from falling victim to scams and potential financial loss. Here are several key indicators to help you recognize and steer clear of tax phishing attempts.
  • Be cautious of unsolicited communication claiming to be from tax authorities. Legitimate tax agencies typically do not initiate contact via email, phone calls, or text messages. If you receive such messages, especially if they demand urgent action or threaten penalties, be skeptical
  • Pay attention to the sender's email address, phone number, or website URLs. Scammers often create deceptive domains or use slight variations that mimic official tax authority contacts. Verify the legitimacy of these details by cross-checking with official sources, such as the IRS website.
  • Look out for signs of poor grammar, spelling errors, or generic salutations in the messages. Official communications from tax authorities are typically well-written and professional. Any inconsistencies or mistakes should raise red flags.
  • Avoid clicking on suspicious links or downloading attachments from unsolicited messages. These may lead you to fraudulent websites or infect your device with malware. Instead, manually visit the official website of the tax authority to access any relevant information or forms.
  • Beware of requests for personal or financial information, such as Social Security numbers, bank account details, or passwords. Legitimate tax authorities rarely ask for such information via email or phone. If in doubt, contact the tax authority directly using their official contact information to verify the request.
  • Educate yourself about common tax phishing techniques and stay informed about current scams. Regularly check the IRS or tax authority's official website for alerts or warnings about known phishing attempts (https://www.irs.gov/privacy-disclosure/report-phishing). 
By staying vigilant and being proactive, you can effectively identify tax phishing threats and protect yourself from falling victim to these scams. If you receive communications from any taxing authority or agency, please reach out to our team as we can review the communications, the legitimacy of the correspondence, and proceed accordingly. 

Understanding Reasonable Compensation for S-Corporations

6/28/2023

 
Picture
Are you a small business owner operating as an S-Corporation? If so, reasonable compensation is a crucial concept in the realm of business and taxation. But what exactly does reasonable compensation mean, and why is it so important? 
 
Reasonable compensation refers to the amount of salary or wages that an S-Corporation pays to its owner-employee(s) who are actively involved in the day-to-day operations of the business for the services they provide to the company. S-Corps, as pass-through entities, allow the income generated by the business to pass through to the shareholders, who then report and pay taxes on their respective shares of the profits. However, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) requires S-Corp owners to receive reasonable compensation for their work to prevent the evasion of payroll taxes.
 
But why is reasonable compensation important? There are a few key reasons:
  1. Compliance with IRS Regulations: The IRS requires S-Corporation owners to pay themselves reasonable compensation to avoid potential issues with reclassification of distributions as wages. By ensuring that you are paying yourself reasonable compensation, you can stay in compliance with IRS regulations and minimize the risk of triggering an audit.
  2. Avoiding Penalties and Interest: Failing to pay reasonable compensation can lead to penalties and interest charges from the IRS. By working with us and leveraging our expertise, we can help you determine the appropriate level of compensation and ensure that you meet all regulatory requirements.
  3. Funding Your Social Security: Paying yourself reasonable compensation is also crucial for funding your social security benefits. As an employee of your S-Corporation, you contribute to your social security through payroll taxes. These contributions are essential for building your future retirement benefits and ensuring your financial security down the line.
 
How do you report Reasonable Compensation?
At Cornbelt Financial, we leverage Gusto, a comprehensive payroll platform, to help process payroll for S-Corporations. Gusto streamlines the payroll process, making it easy to accurately calculate and document reasonable compensation, ensuring that your payroll is in compliance with IRS guidelines.

However, determining reasonable compensation can be complex and involves consideration for multiple factors such as the nature of the business, qualifications and responsibilities of the owner, your role and time spent in the business, industry standards, geographic location, job market, and the financial performance of your company. In summary, reasonable compensation should be the fair and justifiable amount that an individual would be paid for similar services in a similar industry and geographic location.
 
It's important for S-Corp owners to strike the right balance when setting their salary. On one hand, paying a reasonable salary ensures compliance with IRS regulations and helps avoid penalties. On the other hand, setting an unreasonably low salary and taking the majority of income as distributions could raise red flags during an IRS audit. Therefore, seeking our guidance can be beneficial in determining an appropriate salary.

Our team of experts at Cornbelt Financial specializes in providing guidance and support for S-Corporations. We can help you navigate the complexities of reasonable compensation, ensuring that you strike the right balance between a fair salary and optimizing tax advantages.

Contact us today to discuss your S-Corporation's compensation strategy and learn how Cornbelt Financial and Gusto can simplify the payroll process while ensuring compliance with reasonable compensation guidelines.

Should you file Form SS-8 to ask the IRS to determine a worker’s status?

5/12/2018

0 Comments

 
Picture
Classifying workers as independent contractors — rather than employees — can save businesses money and provide other benefits. But the IRS is on the lookout for businesses that do this improperly to avoid taxes and employee benefit obligations.

To find out how the IRS will classify a particular worker, businesses can file optional IRS Form SS-8, “Determination of Worker Status for Purposes of Federal Employment Taxes and Income Tax Withholding.” However, the IRS has a history of reflexively classifying workers as employees, and filing this form may alert the IRS that your business has classification issues — and even inadvertently trigger an employment tax audit.

Contractor vs. employee status

A business enjoys several advantages when it classifies a worker as an independent contractor rather than as an employee. For example, it isn’t required to pay payroll taxes, withhold taxes, pay benefits or comply with most wage and hour laws.
On the downside, if the IRS determines that you’ve improperly classified employees as independent contractors, you can be subject to significant back taxes, interest and penalties. That’s why filing IRS Form SS-8 for an up-front determination may sound appealing.

But because of the risks involved, instead of filing the form, it can be better to simply properly treat independent contractors so they meet the tax code rules. Among other things, this generally includes not controlling how the worker performs his or her duties, ensuring you’re not the worker’s only client, providing Form 1099 and, overall, not treating the worker like an employee.

Be prepared for workers filing the form

Workers seeking determination of their status can also file Form SS-8. Disgruntled independent contractors may do so because they feel entitled to health, retirement and other employee benefits and want to eliminate self-employment tax liabilities.

After a worker files Form SS-8, the IRS sends a letter to the business. It identifies the worker and includes a blank Form SS-8. The business is asked to complete and return it to the IRS, which will render a classification decision. But the Form SS-8 determination process doesn’t constitute an official IRS audit.

Passing IRS muster

If your business properly classifies workers as independent contractors, don’t panic if a worker files a Form SS-8. Contact us before replying to the IRS. With a proper response, you may be able to continue to classify the worker as a contractor. We also can assist you in setting up independent contractor relationships that can pass muster with the IRS.

Size of charitable deductions depends on many factors

3/28/2018

0 Comments

 
Picture
Whether you’re claiming charitable deductions on your 2017 return or planning your donations for 2018, be sure you know how much you’re allowed to deduct. Your deduction depends on more than just the actual amount you donate.

Type of gift

One of the biggest factors affecting your deduction is what you give:

Cash.
 You may deduct 100% gifts made by check, credit card or payroll deduction.

Ordinary-income property.
 For stocks and bonds held one year or less, inventory, and property subject to depreciation recapture, you generally may deduct only the lesser of fair market value or your tax basis.

Long-term capital gains property. 
You may deduct the current fair market value of appreciated stocks and bonds held for more than one year.

Tangible personal property. 
Your deduction depends on the situation:
  • If the property isn’t related to the charity’s tax-exempt function (such as a painting donated for a charity auction), your deduction is limited to your basis.
  • If the property is related to the charity’s tax-exempt function (such as a painting donated to a museum for its collection), you can deduct the fair market value.

Vehicle. 
Unless the vehicle is being used by the charity, you generally may deduct only the amount the charity receives when it sells the vehicle.

Use of property.
 Examples include use of a vacation home and a loan of artwork. Generally, you receive no deduction because it isn’t considered a completed gift.

Services.
 You may deduct only your out-of-pocket expenses, not the fair market value of your services. You can deduct 14 cents per charitable mile driven.

Other factors

First, you’ll benefit from the charitable deduction only if you itemize deductions rather than claim the standard deduction. Also, your annual charitable donation deductions may be reduced if they exceed certain income-based limits.
In addition, your deduction generally must be reduced by the value of any benefit received from the charity. Finally, various substantiation requirements apply, and the charity must be eligible to receive tax-deductible contributions.

2018 planning

While December’s Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) preserves the charitable deduction, it temporarily makes itemizing less attractive for many taxpayers, reducing the tax benefits of charitable giving for them.

Itemizing saves tax only if itemized deductions exceed the standard deduction. For 2018 through 2025, the TCJA nearly doubles the standard deduction — plus, it limits or eliminates some common itemized deductions. As a result, you may no longer have enough itemized deductions to exceed the standard deduction, in which case your charitable donations won’t save you tax.

You might be able to preserve your charitable deduction by “bunching” donations into alternating years, so that you’ll exceed the standard deduction and can claim a charitable deduction (and other itemized deductions) every other year.
Let us know if you have questions about how much you can deduct on your 2017 return or what your charitable giving strategy should be going forward, in light of the TCJA.

Don’t forget: 2017 tax filing deadline for pass-through entities is March 15

3/14/2018

0 Comments

 
Picture
When it comes to income tax returns, April 15 (actually April 17 this year, because of a weekend and a Washington, D.C., holiday) isn’t the only deadline taxpayers need to think about. The federal income tax filing deadline for calendar-year partnerships, S corporations and limited liability companies (LLCs) treated as partnerships or S corporations for tax purposes is March 15. While this has been the S corporation deadline for a long time, it’s only the second year the partnership deadline has been in March rather than in April.

Why the deadline change?

One of the primary reasons for moving up the partnership filing deadline was to make it easier for owners to file their personal returns by the April filing deadline. After all, partnership (and S corporation) income passes through to the owners. The earlier date allows owners to use the information contained in the pass-through entity forms to file their personal returns.

What about fiscal-year entities?

For partnerships with fiscal year ends, tax returns are now due the 15th day of the third month after the close of the tax year. The same deadline applies to fiscal-year S corporations. Under prior law, returns for fiscal-year partnerships were due the 15th day of the fourth month after the close of the fiscal tax year.

What about extensions?

If you haven’t filed your calendar-year partnership or S corporation return yet, you may be thinking about an extension. Under the current law, the maximum extension for calendar-year partnerships is six months (until September 17, 2018, for 2017 returns). This is up from five months under prior law. So the extension deadline is the same — only the length of the extension has changed. The extension deadline for calendar-year S corporations also is September 17, 2018, for 2017 returns.

Whether you’ll be filing a partnership or an S corporation return, you must file for the extension by March 15 if it’s a calendar-year entity.

When does an extension make sense?

Filing for an extension can be tax-smart if you’re missing critical documents or you face unexpected life events that prevent you from devoting sufficient time to your return right now.

But keep in mind that, to avoid potential interest and penalties, you still must (with a few exceptions) pay any tax due by the unextended deadline. There may not be any tax liability from the partnership or S corporation return. If, however, filing for an extension for the entity return causes you to also have to file an extension for your personal return, you need to keep this in mind related to the individual tax return April 17 deadline.

Have more questions about the filing deadlines that apply to you or avoiding interest and penalties? Contact us.

What’s your mileage deduction?

3/9/2018

0 Comments

 
Picture
Individuals can deduct some vehicle-related expenses in certain circumstances. Rather than keeping track of the actual costs, you can use a standard mileage rate to compute your deductions. For 2017, you might be able to deduct miles driven for business, medical, moving and charitable purposes. For 2018, there are significant changes to some of these deductions under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA).

Mileage rates vary

The rates vary depending on the purpose and the year:
  • Business: 53.5 cents (2017), 54.5 cents (2018)
  • Medical: 17 cents (2017), 18 cents (2018)
  • Moving: 17 cents (2017), 18 cents (2018)
  • Charitable: 14 cents (2017 and 2018)
The business standard mileage rate is considerably higher than the medical, moving and charitable rates because the business rate contains a depreciation component. No depreciation is allowed for the medical, moving or charitable use of a vehicle. The charitable rate is lower than the medical and moving rate because it isn’t adjusted for inflation.
In addition to deductions based on the standard mileage rate, you may deduct related parking fees and tolls.

2017 and 2018 limits

The rules surrounding the various mileage deductions are complex. Some are subject to floors and some require you to meet specific tests in order to qualify.

For example, if you’re an employee, only business mileage not reimbursed by your employer is deductible. It’s a miscellaneous itemized deduction subject to a 2% of adjusted gross income (AGI) floor. For 2017, this means mileage is deductible only to the extent that your total miscellaneous itemized deductions for the year exceed 2% of your AGI. For 2018, it means that you can’t deduct the mileage, because the TCJA suspends miscellaneous itemized deductions subject to the 2% floor for 2018 through 2025.

If you’re self-employed, business mileage can be deducted against self-employment income. Therefore, it’s not subject to the 2% floor and is still deductible for 2018 through 2025, as long as it otherwise qualifies.

Miles driven for health-care-related purposes are deductible as part of the medical expense deduction. And an AGI floor applies. Under the TCJA, for 2017 and 2018, medical expenses are deductible to the extent they exceed 7.5% of your adjusted gross income. For 2019, the floor will return to 10%, unless Congress extends the 7.5% floor.

And while miles driven related to moving can be deductible on your 2017 return, the move must be work-related and meet other tests. For 2018 through 2025, under the TCJA, moving expenses are deductible only for certain military families.

Substantiation and more

There are also substantiation requirements, which include tracking miles driven. And, in some cases, you might be better off deducting actual expenses rather than using the mileage rates.

We can help ensure you deduct all the mileage you’re entitled to on your 2017 tax return but don’t risk back taxes and penalties later for deducting more than allowed. Contact us for assistance and to learn how your mileage deduction for 2018 might be affected by the TCJA.

Sec. 179 expensing provides small businesses tax savings on 2017 returns — and more savings in the future

3/7/2018

0 Comments

 
Picture
If you purchased qualifying property by December 31, 2017, you may be able to take advantage of Section 179 expensing on your 2017 tax return. You’ll also want to keep this tax break in mind in your property purchase planning, because the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), signed into law this past December, significantly enhances it beginning in 2018.

2017 Sec. 179 benefits
Sec. 179 expensing allows eligible taxpayers to deduct the entire cost of qualifying new or used depreciable property and most software in Year 1, subject to various limitations. For tax years that began in 2017, the maximum Sec. 179 deduction is $510,000. The maximum deduction is phased out dollar for dollar to the extent the cost of eligible property placed in service during the tax year exceeds the phaseout threshold of $2.03 million.

Qualified real property improvement costs are also eligible for Sec. 179 expensing. This real estate break applies to:
  • Certain improvements to interiors of leased nonresidential buildings,
  • Certain restaurant buildings or improvements to such buildings, and
  • Certain improvements to the interiors of retail buildings.
Deductions claimed for qualified real property costs count against the overall maximum for Sec. 179 expensing.

Permanent enhancements

The TCJA permanently enhances Sec. 179 expensing. Under the new law, for qualifying property placed in service in tax years beginning in 2018, the maximum Sec. 179 deduction is increased to $1 million, and the phaseout threshold is increased to $2.5 million. For later tax years, these amounts will be indexed for inflation. For purposes of determining eligibility for these higher limits, property is treated as acquired on the date on which a written binding contract for the acquisition is signed.

The new law also expands the definition of eligible property to include certain depreciable tangible personal property used predominantly to furnish lodging. The definition of qualified real property eligible for Sec. 179 expensing is also expanded to include the following improvements to nonresidential real property: roofs, HVAC equipment, fire protection and alarm systems, and security systems.

Save now and save later

Many rules apply, so please contact us to learn if you qualify for this break on your 2017 return. We’d also be happy to discuss your future purchasing plans so you can reap the maximum benefits from enhanced Sec. 179 expensing and other tax law changes under the TCJA.

Tax credit for hiring from certain “target groups” can provide substantial tax savings

2/27/2018

0 Comments

 
Picture
Many businesses hired in 2017, and more are planning to hire in 2018. If you’re among them and your hires include members of a “target group,” you may be eligible for the Work Opportunity tax credit (WOTC). If you made qualifying hires in 2017 and obtained proper certification, you can claim the WOTC on your 2017 tax return.

Whether or not you’re eligible for 2017, keep the WOTC in mind in your 2018 hiring plans. Despite its proposed elimination under the House’s version of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the credit survived the final version that was signed into law in December, so it’s also available for 2018.

“Target groups,” defined

Target groups include:
  • Qualified individuals who have been unemployed for 27 weeks or more,
  • Designated community residents who live in Empowerment Zones or rural renewal counties,
  • Long-term family assistance recipients,
  • Qualified ex-felons,
  • Qualified recipients of Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF),
  • Qualified veterans,
  • Summer youth employees,
  • Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) recipients,
  • Supplemental Security Income benefits recipients, and
  • Vocational rehabilitation referrals for individuals who suffer from an employment handicap resulting from a physical or mental handicap.
Before you can claim the WOTC, you must obtain certification from a “designated local agency” (DLA) that the hired individual is indeed a target group member. You must submit IRS Form 8850, “Pre-Screening Notice and Certification Request for the Work Opportunity Credit,” to the DLA no later than the 28th day after the individual begins work for you. Unfortunately, this means that, if you hired someone from a target group in 2017 but didn’t obtain the certification, you can’t claim the WOTC on your 2017 return.

A potentially valuable credit

Qualifying employers can claim the WOTC as a general business credit against their income tax. The amount of the credit depends on the:
  • Target group of the individual hired,
  • Wages paid to that individual, and
  • Number of hours that individual worked during the first year of employment.
The maximum credit that can be earned for each member of a target group is generally $2,400 per employee. The credit can be as high as $9,600 for certain veterans.

Employers aren’t subject to a limit on the number of eligible individuals they can hire. In other words, if you hired 10 individuals from target groups that qualify for the $2,400 credit, your total credit would be $24,000.
Remember, credits reduce your tax bill dollar-for-dollar; they don’t just reduce the amount of income subject to tax like deductions do. So that’s $24,000 of actual tax savings.

Offset hiring costs

The WOTC can provide substantial tax savings when you hire qualified new employees, offsetting some of the cost. Contact us for more information.

Families with college students may save tax on their 2017 returns with one of these breaks

2/26/2018

0 Comments

 
Picture
Whether you had a child in college (or graduate school) last year or were a student yourself, you may be eligible for some valuable tax breaks on your 2017 return. One such break that had expired December 31, 2016, was just extended under the recently passed Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018: the tuition and fees deduction.

But a couple of tax credits are also available. Tax credits can be especially valuable because they reduce taxes dollar-for-dollar; deductions reduce only the amount of income that’s taxed.

Higher education breaks 101

While multiple higher-education breaks are available, a taxpayer isn’t allowed to claim all of them. In most cases you can take only one break per student, and, for some breaks, only one per tax return. So first you need to see which breaks you’re eligible for. Then you need to determine which one will provide the greatest benefit.

Also keep in mind that you generally can’t claim deductions or credits for expenses that were paid for with distributions from tax-advantaged accounts, such as 529 plans or Coverdell Education Savings Accounts.

Credits

Two credits are available for higher education expenses:
  1. The American Opportunity credit — up to $2,500 per year per student for qualifying expenses for the first four years of postsecondary education.
  2. The Lifetime Learning credit — up to $2,000 per tax return for postsecondary education expenses, even beyond the first four years.
But income-based phaseouts apply to these credits.

If you’re eligible for the American Opportunity credit, it will likely provide the most tax savings. If you’re not, consider claiming the Lifetime Learning credit. But first determine if the tuition and fees deduction might provide more tax savings.

Deductions

Despite the dollar-for-dollar tax savings credits offer, you might be better off deducting up to $4,000 of qualified higher education tuition and fees. Because it’s an above-the-line deduction, it reduces your adjusted gross income, which could provide additional tax benefits. But income-based limits also apply to the tuition and fees deduction.

Be aware that the tuition and fees deduction was extended only through December 31, 2017. So it won’t be available on your 2018 return unless Congress extends it again or makes it permanent.

Maximizing your savings

If you don’t qualify for breaks for your child’s higher education expenses because your income is too high, your child might. Many additional rules and limits apply to the credits and deduction, however. To learn which breaks your family might be eligible for on your 2017 tax returns — and which will provide the greatest tax savings — please contact us.
