20/20 Money Episode #319 – Year-End Tax Planning Concepts & Strategies to Minimize Tax Stress with JR Armstrong, CPA

December 16, 2024

Welcome to this episode of 20/20 Money!

My guest on today’s show is JR Armstrong, CPA and a partner at May & Co, a CPA firm dedicated to serving optometric practice owners nationwide.

JR joins me back on the show for a year-end tax planning episode. We talk about the importance of taking a multi-year approach when evaluating your depreciation strategy on equipment, how inventory influences year-end tax planning, how to “penalty proof” your personal tax return, and other important tax concepts practice owners should be thinking about and discussing with their advisory team.
