Materials

• The books are not in the bookstore yet because the publisher is out of stock. I will email you when the book is in the store.
• Prentice Hall’s Federal Taxation 2011 for Individuals, Thomas Pope, Kenneth Anderson, John Kramer (ISBN: 9780132138574). This book is currently out of stock at Prentice-Hall.
• The campus bookstore sells a comprehensive book covering individual and corporate taxes (ISBN: 9780132138598). The price you pay for the comprehensive book is the same as the book covering individual taxation. We will not be covering corporate taxes at a simple level, not in as much detail as the comprehensive book.
