Cutting edge activities challenge tax rules written with different business methods and products in mind. For example, cloud computing raises issues as to how longstanding tax provisions, such as the research tax credit and Section 199 manufacturing deduction apply. This and other current tax topics relevant to high tech companies and their tax advisers are on the agenda for the 31st Annual TEI-SJSU High Tech Tax Institute, November 9 & 10, 2015 in Palo Alto. Additional topics include BEPS Relevance, M&A activities, state tax haven activities, European Union hot topics and how these topics also affect the income tax provision on financial statements.
