Tax and Economic Implications of Supercommittee Failure - AICPA Webcast
Published November 29, 2011
Join nationally recognized budget expert Stan Collender and tax expert Mel Schwarz for a discussion about what’s next, now that the supercommittee has failed to produce an agreement to reduce the deficit.
WHO: Stan Collender, Qorvis partner, and Mel Schwarz, Grant Thornton LLP partner and director of Tax Legislative Affairs, as well as chair of the AICPA Tax Legislation and Policy Committee.
WHAT:
- What is the likelihood of across-the-board cuts as required by law since the supercommittee failed to reach an agreement? What other options do Congress or President Obama have?
- How badly have the markets been spooked by the political process and what impact might this have on things like interest rates, stock prices, and credit ratings?
- Where are we now with potential tax law changes – what extenders will survive?
- What impact will the upcoming elections have on tax reform and tax cuts?
WHEN: Tuesday, Nov. 29, 2 p.m. – 3 p.m. ET
