Never again will we hear about the need for an AMT Patch

After many years of threats that without an AMT Patch, middle class taxpayers could fall under the alternative tax regime paying higher taxes, Congress has permanently boosted the AMT income exemption for 2012 with future increases indexed for inflation.
The AMT is a parallel tax system that disallows many of the deductions, exemptions and credits that taxpayers normally claim to reduce their tax liability under regular tax rules. Anyone subject to the tax must calculate their taxes under both sets of rules and pay the higher of the two calculated taxes. Read more on our website at http://www.mpbcpa.com/_pdf/ATPR.pdf

Small Business Expensing & Bonus Depreciation Continue through 2013

The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 extends through 2013 the enhanced Code Section 179 small business expensing of up to $500,000 of business assets, as long as total asset additions for the year do not exceed $2 million. Without this yearend extension, the expensing would have been limited to $125,000 in 2012 and only $25,000 in 2013.
Bonus depreciation which allows up to 50% of the cost of the asset purchased to be depreciated in the initial year was also extended through 2013. Read more on our website at http://www.mpbcpa.com/_pdf/ATPR.pdf

Charitable Deductions Still Remain Safe

The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 preserved the charitable deduction. The bill placed no cap on charitable deductions, and extended for individuals 70½ or older the IRA charitable rollover of up to $100,000 through Dec. 31.

Transition rules allow IRA distribution made during December, 2012 and January, 2013 to qualify as charitable rollovers if the payment to the charity is made in January, 2013 and a proper tax election is filed with your return. Read more on our website at http://www.mpbcpa.com/_pdf/ATPR.pdf
