PREFACE


This manual includes solutions to the discussion questions, problems,
comprehensive problems, tax strategy problems, case study problems, and tax research

in the Instructor’s Resource Manual.

The Instructor’s Resource Manual, including lecture outlines, is available on the
Instructor’s Resource Center (IRC) online at:

www.pearsonhighered.com/pearsontax

Registration/login is required on the IRC online. For assistance, you may contact

Every effort was made to minimize technical and typographical errors in the
preparation of the Solutions Manual for the 2025 Edition. The solutions to each chapter
were prepared by the individual who authored the text material for the chapter. In
addition, a review of the materials for the 2025 Edition was conducted by an accuracy
reviewer and by the editors.

We would appreciate receiving any corrections for subsequent revisions from
those instructors who have adopted the text. In addition, we would appreciate receiving
any suggestions for adding new problems or questions to the current problem materials
for the next edition of this volume or enhancing the coverage of existing problem
materials included in the 2025 Edition. Our thanks go out to those individuals who have
alerted us to errors in the Solutions Manual for previous editions. These errata items have
been corrected in this Solutions Manual. If you locate what you believe to be an error,
please notify Professor Mitchell Franklin at . A prompt reply will
be provided concerning all possible errors. In addition, corrections to errors will be
posted online at www.pearsonhighered.com/pearsontax. See “Textbook Errata.”
