Message from the Firm
By Michael B. Luftman
This is our fourth and last newsletter regarding the estate planning and exempt organization aspects of the Pension Protection Act. The theme remains the same, which is to force people to use charitable entities correctly. The articles address the issues of excise taxes, appraisal penalties and the modified taxation of private foundations. All three articles show the punitive measures that are in the law, which the IRS will be using to enforce the law.
