MAS Tax Services

You’ll probably owe tax on your retirement income — how much depends on factors such as the types of retirement accounts you own and your other income sources. In general, retirees should withdraw funds from any taxable accounts first, tax-deferred accounts second and tax-free accounts last. But different withdrawal strategies may benefit you. The important thing is to start planning before you retire. Call us at (916) 515-9337 for help.

If your C corporation traditionally makes deductible charitable gifts, make sure you know the rules for 2026 donations. Starting Jan. 1, 2026, corporations can only deduct charitable gifts in excess of 1% of the company’s taxable income, with a 10% of income cap. Amounts exceeding the 10% cap can be carried forward — as can amounts that aren’t currently deductible due to the 1% floor — for up to five years. You may want to execute a multiyear charitable deduction strategy if your company’s income varies from year to year. Contact us at (916) 515-9337. We can help by projecting income and other deductions so you can support your community while maximizing long-term tax benefits.

Monthly financial statements are essential. But they often take weeks to prepare and may arrive after you’ve already made critical business decisions. Flash reports can help bridge that gap by providing real-time snapshots of critical metrics — such as cash balances, collections and payroll. These reports provide timely insight into financial performance, allowing you to identify emerging issues before they become major problems. Because flash reports are preliminary, you should use them as management tools, not formal financial statements. Call us at (916) 515-9337 to discuss how customized flash reports can help your business make faster, more informed financial decisions.
