Learning Objective

  • To explain the purpose of Form 4797.
  • To analyze how to properly fill out Form 4797.
  • To discuss the calculation of gain or loss on the sale of business assets.
  • To explore some of the quirky transactions that require the use of Form 4797.

Course Overview

Whether you’re an enrolled agent, a CPA, or a dedicated tax preparer, there’s one thing that holds come tax time: preparing a client’s tax returns is rarely simple. Depending on the client, there may or may not be a big stack of forms, tables, and spreadsheets that you’ll have to navigate. Some clients bring you the proverbial shoebox full of receipts and expect you to simply go through them and sort out their entire prior year’s transactions. Others simply have no records whatsoever and don’t know where even to begin.

When you’re working with a business, though, there’s one thing that often throws a wrench in the works for a tax preparer, even if the client has kept excellent and highly detailed records. We’re talking about the sale of business assets, and the accompanying IRS form 4797 goes along with them.

There are plenty of complicated and often dreaded IRS tax forms out there. Still, form 4797 stands apart from the crowd as a particularly challenging form to understand. Form 4797, Sales of Business Property, is one of the most complex but necessary forms practitioners prepare. Sales of intangible and tangible property are reported here, along with the calculation of the related gains and losses, including depreciation and Section 179 recapture. 

In this CE/CPE webinar, speaker Nick Preusch will dive deeply into Form 4797 and how to report and properly fill out the form. 

The form mainly deals with the sale of business assets. However, there are a couple of quirks that we will look at such as Preferred stock, mark-to-market traders, 1244 stock, and small business investment company stock to name a few.

Key Topics Covered: 

  • Purpose of Form
  • 1231 Transactions & Not 1231 Transactions
  • 1245 Property and 1250 Property
  • Business Use of Home
  • QOF - Reporting
  • IRC 1244 Stock
  • Partners and Shareholders with 179 Deductions

Great webinar! The presenter was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of real live examples. Loved the two table and chart that you shared with us. I'll definitely refer to them as needed. I also I liked how the presenter went over Form 4797 line by line.

Jonathan Gentry, Tax Professional

I do feel that some questions on the final were not primarily related to the depreciation topic, but other than that it was a fine experience.
