Last week, when I wrote my message to our North Georgia business clients, the biggest news was the second round of the PPP, and that expenses covered under the first round of it would be tax deductible.Has anything happened since then?Goodness, even just the...
Wow, does it ever feel good to have turned the page on 2020. This first “working week” is when I finally began to feel the newness of it all.Yes, it’s “just a date” on a Gregorian calendar, but …2021 holds great promise for our Hall...
It’s going to take us many weeks to digest everything in this massive omnibus of a relief bill that the President signed on Sunday night.And with year-end barrelling at us (2021 is on FRIDAY), it’s unlikely that we will be able to make substantive action...
Well, Congress seems to have heard the cries of the huddled masses of SMB’s around the country, and more PPP funding is (seemingly) on the way.Details aren’t finalized yet as of this writing, so I will have more to say on these matters in future weeks.Even...
Maybe I’m writing this today because we’re very much feeling the end-of-year crunch here at Team ASA Accounting & Tax Services.Really, we only have a few business days left before 2020 is in the rearview. Yes, my heart wants that to happen YESTERDAY,...

There’s both good news (for some) and bad news (for many) as we round the corner into December.And I’m not talking about our culture, or politics, or sports, or anything like that.I’m talking about TAXES.I’ll start with the good news. This is...
With all of the insanity of 2020, it seems a bit crazy (and a bit of a relief, to be frank) that we now find ourselves in Thanksgiving week in North Georgia.I have some thoughts, which are perhaps a bit more meditative than normal, because of how this holiday works...
With the increased standard deduction this past year ($12,400 single, $24,800 married filing jointly, $18,650 head of household), some smaller charities began to see a decrease in donations.This year might be worse.Yes, I hate to be the one to say these things, but...
A week past the election, and still plenty of disagreement about the results.That means this is another week where you have the opportunity for the other chumps out there to get massively distracted by the political war games … while you go about quietly...
