Welcome Rebekah Littleton, MAcc

2022-08-02T13:02:10+00:00

I began my working career in retail and eventually found myself as a cake decorator for roughly 5 years. Finally, with the support of a very close friend, I decided to go to college. This helped fulfill a dream I never thought was possible. I graduated from the University of Washington with a Bachelors in Business Administration with an emphasis in accounting in 2018. Shortly after, in 2020, I graduated with a Masters of Accountancy.   I have worked in public accounting since 2019, during which I worked with a variety of business owners; doctors, contractors, retailers, manufacturers, veterinarians, and real [...]

IRS has updated the business mileage deduction for 2022

2022-07-11T15:22:31+00:00

In recognition of recent gasoline price increases, the IRS made a special declaration (IRS Announcement 2022-13):  For the final 6 months of 2022, the standard mileage rate for business travel will be 62.5 cents per mile, up 4 cents from the rate at the beginning of the year. For business vehicles, using mileage at the IRS rate is an option in lieu of tracking actual costs like payments, gasoline, depreciation, and maintenance.  Killingsworth Spencer’s CPAs work these numbers with each client each year and generally see mileage as the better and easier-to-track deduction, but we may see a swing to actual [...]

Important Tax Reminder

2021-03-18T19:20:14+00:00

You have likely heard by now that the IRS has moved the 2020 individual tax filing deadline from April 15th, 2021, to Monday May 17th, 2021. The state of Georgia has yet to announce if it will conform to the new federal tax filing deadline; however, we expect that announcement at any time. If you pay quarterly estimates, the 1st quarterly installment for 2021 is still due on April 15th, 2021. There remains the possibility that the IRS may also extend this filing deadline to May 17th, but for now, plan to pay that 1st estimate by April 15th.   Stay [...]

Are you planning to purchase a new vehicle soon?

2020-12-21T16:59:46+00:00

A frequent mistake made by many business owners is with their auto expenses and tax deductions. The most common deduction method is the Mileage Method, and the deduction for 2020 is 57.5 cents per business-use mile. This deduction INCLUDES the costs for fuel and oil, maintenance, tires, car washes, and insurance. It is still a good idea to keep an eye on these expenses, but your tax preparer will not need them to calculate your tax deduction. You should keep accurate records as to how you use your vehicle in your business. Often times, we see where a taxpayer will “double [...]

Automatic Extension to FILE taxes

2020-07-13T01:58:11+00:00

Hello everyone. Last year I did a podcast about using an automatic extension if you are not ready to file your returns by the April 15th deadline. Because of the Covid pandemic, this year's due date is July 15th. Other than substituting July 15th for April 15th for 2020, the balance of the information remains relevant.

How GA Film Tax Credits Work

2020-07-10T23:31:53+00:00

Hello there, Andrea Altman with Killingsworth Spencer here. Today I want to let you all know about how the Georgia Film Tax Credits work, and how they can save many GA residents on their state income taxes.

GA currently ranks 3rd behind California and New York in the total number of film and television projects produced. Over 92,000 Georgians are employed by the film industry with over $4.6B in direct wages, and an estimated economic impact of $9.5B (these are [...]
