Develop winning strategies for managing real and personal property tax.
Wisconsin businesses are required to file annual personal property tax renditions. Many companies do not understand the reporting requirement leading to over-assessed parcels. The Wisconsin budget bill was recently passed including a $74.4 million reduction in the personal property tax. With little state guidance, businesses are left unsure how to utilize the new exemption for machinery, tools, and patterns. This topic helps the persons responsible for preparing personal property tax returns to understand what exemptions are available in Wisconsin, what property may qualify, and how to avoid over-assessed property. The material also explains the method for reviewing notice of assessments, handling audits, and understanding when to appeal valuations.
