This includes a deciphering of the extremely complex provisions of the new tax law, explaining how you can benefit from the beneficial changes (and avoid the new pitfalls) in the new law to greatly reduce taxes on your small business.FULLY UPDATED FOR THE NEW FEDERAL TAX LAWS AND RATES THAT WENT INTO EFFECT IN 2018!
