Understanding Proprietorships Key to Your Demographic

Unincorporated small business returns are increasingly in demand as an aging demographic moves from full-time employment to self-employment as a way to leverage time and money.

To fully understand the ins and outs of this aspect of the business, Knowledge Bureau’s T1 Professional Tax Preparation – Proprietorships course is here to guide you through the process.

This course is designed to teach professional advisors tax preparation for proprietorships, using CRA’s prescribed forms: Statement of Business or Professional Activities; Capital Cost Allowance statements; worksheets for reporting home office, automobiles, other assets, inventory control, and cost of goods sold. Students may use their own tax preparation software to complete the course. For those without tax preparation software, student versions of Intuit’s ProFile Software Suite, Dr Tax’s DT Max, and TaxCycle Suite are provided with the course.

Students will learn specifically how to complete the income statement for the self-employed, partnerships, farmers, fishermen, and professionals, using the most recent tax laws and budget proposals so that taxpayers arrange affairs within the framework of the law to pay the least taxes possible. Students will also learn how to prepare and file the GST Return and the T4 Summary Return and slips.

Case studies featuring a variety of unincorporated business enterprises enable a thorough understanding of the tax preparation and planning options available to the unincorporated small business owner, including income splitting with family members and the building of both revenues and equity for future tax advantages.

The T1 Professional Tax Preparation – Proprietorships course is a component of the Distinguished Financial Advisor^TM – Tax Services Specialist designation.
