The Ernst & Young Tax Guide 2001

by Ernst, Young LIp (Editor), Peter W. Bernstein, Harvey Wishman

Review:


The Ernst & Young Tax Guide 2000 is for those who could afford to pay more tax but choose not to. It has the most complete information on reporting income from mutual funds and other investments. A whole chapter is called "What to Do If You Employ Domestic Help." It is the only guide actually produced by an accounting firm, and it shows. Information is well organized and presented in great detail, but sometimes at the cost of readability. If you're an individual filer looking for the most comprehensive tax guide, this is probably the one to get.
