Ernst & Young Tax Guide
The Ernst and Young Tax Guide is a excellent reference book for professioinal tax preparers like myself, and for individuals seeking answers to federal tax questions. It is comprehensive and easy to understand. I would recommend it to anyone seeking tax info. Although there are other publications available to the public, I have found this one is the best. It mirrors the IRS publication 17.

Accurate Federal Tax Information
"Ernst & Young Tax Guide 2007" is easy to use with many examples to follow when filling out the 1040 and subsequent forms. The 'white pages' gives you a draft view of each form which allows the user to see just where and how financial records are posted on the forms. This is a convenience so you don't have to go into the IRS website and bring up the form while reading directions or explanations from a large book held in your lap.
The blue information blocks give tips on saving taxes, organizing records to support deductions and problems to be aware of when claiming a specific deduction. The examples are simple and amounts are realistic for the average tax payer. They do not overwhelm the beginner who is opening and operating a new business.
This is an excellent guide to keep on your bottom shelf to use to plan your tax strategies and verify the records you are keeping are adequate. It makes no exaggerated promises which this reviewer finds refreshing.
Artists and authors are covered extensively under the section Self-Employed Entrepreneurs' Tax Guide, which is our major interest.
