Course Description

Corporations pay income taxes as a business entity, unlike many other common business structures such as sole proprietorships, partnerships, limited liability companies (LLCs) and S corporations.

When tax preparers are familiar with Form 1120, U.S. Corporation Income Tax Return, they become a valuable resource for clients who seek to be compliant with federal tax law.

After completing this course, you will be able to:

  • Explain what is a corporation and how it differs from other business structures.

  • Prepare Form 1120 in compliance with IRS rules.

  • Identify other tax topics and forms that are closely tied to Form 1120.

 

This course is also available as part of a bundle called “Taking Care of Business.” You can save money by purchasing the bundle.
