...Performance Management at Perelson Weiner LLP1 Jan Bell Babson College Alfred J. Nanni, Jr Babson College Introduction and entrepreneurs. (See Exhibit 3 for a description of PW’s business.) PW’s business development is relationship-based; the firm doesn’t advertise for business. Instead, personnel develop long-term relationships with clients. These relationships typically start with tax return or financial statement preparation and then grow to include services that provide value to the client in other ways. Weiner explains his client focus this way: “We don’t seek short-term transactional services; we want to spend our time developing client relationships that last 40 years rather than seeking one-time opportunities.” To ensure that clients receive value from PW’s services, Weiner insists that personnel have unique expertise before offering services to clients. PW’s expertise and its ability to add unique value lie in providing traditional tax preparation, accounting, and auditing services, which are then enhanced by meaningful proactive business and tax consulting advice. Weiner has made a strategic decision to focus on these sources of client value plus one other sort of advice. With a New York City location, Weiner feels that PW can also add value for its clients by assisting them in the selection of the best specialized professional service firms in other areas. For example, PW personnel help clients find the best asset management firms and...

...Return 1 Harold and Sarah’s Federal Return Carla Sroufe ACC401 Christine Errico October 15, 2012 Return 2 Harold and Sarah’s Federal Return To complete Harold and Sarah’s Federal tax return, Form 1040 was the form that was chosen when using Tax Act CD. Form 1040 or 1040A are the forms that are required when itemizing deductions. The Petersan’s have many deductions that may help them reduce the tax they owe. I used Schedule A to report the sale of the house, medical expenses, and the mortgage interest. The medical expenses are the medical insurance that both Sarah and Harold had contributed through payroll payments. They both contributed $1,347 which equals $2,694. The real estate taxes are the taxes paid on the property for the year which was $1,500. The mortgage interest was also reported on Schedule A in the amount of $14,400. The total for Schedule A on line 40 is $18,014. The adjusted AGI for Harold and Sarah is $90,916. After subtracting the itemized deductions, the amount is $72,902. I used Form 2441 to configure the Child and Dependent Care expenses. This form helped to configure how much the Petersan’s can report for child care expenses. The maximum amount that can be considered out of the $10,320 is $3,000 for a qualified dependent. With consideration of the AGI, the decimal amount .20 was used to determine the amount that is allowable for the child care expenses. The total amount that the Petersan’s can report is $3,000 multiplied...
