March 14, 2022 – Inflation is currently running very hot, back to levels we haven't seen in 40 years. And, as we've been arguing since 2020, it's likely to remain persistently high for years to come. Question is, what are the financial implications of high inflation when you are planning for your taxes not just in 2022 but also for the years to come? Two weeks ago, we discussed this issue from the standpoint of individuals. Today, we look at this from the perspective of retirees and businesses. Topics discussed: changes to the standard deduction, the "widow's penalty," phasing of deductions, community property states vs. non, sunsetting of Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, estate planning, charitable contributions, and much more.
