Course Introduction
About the Course
If you are a small business consultant or tax professionals providing tax services to taxpayers operating a retail or manufacturer of cannabis products, you need to be aware of the tax rules associated with those two forms of businesses. Although many states have legalized the use and sale of cannabis products, the federal law still considers the sale of these products as illegal. Hence, the business expenses associated with these businesses operate under a different set of Internal Revenue Code rules. Their rules are significantly different from other forms of businesses and, as such, it is critical for consultants and tax professionals to be current on the application of these rules for their clients.
