The Education of the Taxpayer from a Business Perspective

Education incentives have been a favorite of Congress in recent years, but this week we look at the old favorite of education as a business deduction, a provision covered by regulations last updated back in 1967.  The Tax Court had cause to look into this in the case of Ray v. Commissioner, TC Summary Opinion 2009-71.Materials for this week's podcast can be downloaded at http://www.edzollars.com/2009-05-20_Education.pdf .
