If the entity is cash basis, and you discover a 2019 transaction after the return is filed, you file a 2019 amendment. Again, you'll want to take a class. It's very easy this year with everything on demand. You can spend 100 minutes with an instructor, text, and examples from the comfort of your office with your tax return open. For depreciation, read about the requirements to use Form 3115. TTB has a variety of resources, including courses.

Thank you Lion an Atsman. I am not in anyway disagreeing with you all, I understand clearly. It is the treatment in taxes that I am wanting to understand. We have what is called financial statement re-instatement in accounting where we correct previously issued financial statement by making adjustments in retained earnings to bring the books to what it should have been, in this case 2019. I do not know and I am being frank how this translates in taxes. Maybe my questions were not very clear. After the books are corrected how is this treated in tax. I hope I am clearer. Is it to file an amendment in 2019 or to bring in the corrected balances as at 2020 in the current tax return. Please I am very open to learning so I am actually listening to all that you say and also check out the references that are made.
Thanks again - Boma

.If you are going to prepare business returns, you'll want to take a good bookkeeping course. In fact, use your off-season wisely by taking courses to help you prepare the types of tax returns for your clientele.

Boma, please look at a tax return. See how the numbers flow. The standard deduction reduces adjusted gross income before calculating income tax. But then you add other taxes, such as self-employment tax. No. The $918 self-employment tax is NOT reduced by the standard deduction. And, what is the pass-through income you're bringing up now? Yes. Minors pay taxes. IRS's Pub 17 will help you with a lot of your questions. It will explain filing requirements. No. You cannot deduct interest paid during 2019 on a 2020 corporation return. Or, any return, for that matter. If you are going to prepare business returns, you'll want to take a good bookkeeping course. In fact, use your off-season wisely by taking courses to help you prepare the types of tax returns for your clientele.

Thank you Chris for responding. After I adjust the books I suppose it reflects in the book to tax reconciliation because that is where I actually did the adjustment. Will that be correct to reflect the adjustment at the book to tax reconciliation in Schedule M1?

[QUOTE=Boma Osime;n306270]I have two questions....
I have a minor that wants to file his taxes. He has a single member LLC and made some Income last year that made him file his taxes. I honestly do not know yet how his taxes were filed until I see it to review it, but he says he paid about $900 in taxes to the IRS. He made about $6,000 in income. I know that minors are not required to file taxes and should he have paid that much in taxes when his standard deduction was higher than the income made. Is he required to file his taxes this year because of the Schedule C Income he made in 2020?
His tax is SS. 6,000 X 15.3% = $918. no deductions.......Last edited by BOB W; 05-03-2021, 04:41 PM.

Secondly, I have a 1120 corporation tax I am working on, The previous 2 tax years that were filed were not done properly. It is a dental business with one owner but incorporated. The owner obtained a loan and purchased some equipment in the year it started in 2018. No depreciation was deducted in both prior years. I adjusted for depreciation in this 2020 return for the previous years via the retained earnings. Is this allowed? Also, interest paid on loan was not captured in 2019 I included this interest as part of 2020, will this allowed be allowed?
Age is generally irrelevant as far as filing requirements... $400 or more in self employment income you are required to file.
You can adjust the "books" via retained earnings, not the tax returns. I would amend the open years to fix them. You cannot deduct a 2019 expense on a 2020 return.
