This text takes a straightforward, application-oriented approach to learning individual tax. Long-standing rules are set forth in a concise manner and paired with examples to promote clarity. Real-life stories give context and depth to the material. From this solid foundation, students are asked to apply the rules in a simple setting, assuring they understand the basics. Then, they are challenged to apply the rules in more complex, interesting, and thought-provoking settings, encouraging them to engage in critical thinking. Through this approach, students develop both an understanding of tax and the analytical skills necessary to apply that knowledge.
