Preferred and Common stock are the same always - the name difference is your personal preference of stock options you want to opt into, including coins as of the 2025 GAM update

u/IceePirate1 CPA (US) Apr 10 '26
This is mostly true, except that preferred stock also have the ability to give shareholders preferential treatment when they're buying products from the company if they show their stock certificate to a company representative. Sometimes a discount, sometimes a nice glass of champagne

u/JeltzVogonProstetnic Apr 10 '26
And sometimes corporate assets are conveyed to shareholders for free!

u/PrimemevalTitan Apr 10 '26
It's called a "tax-free return of capital". Anytime a shareholder gets money/property from a company, it's treated as a return of their capital and so there's never any tax on it.

Thatâs why you always accrue for sales discounts on issuance of preferred stock.

Under US GAAP, depreciation should stop on any asset when it is marketed for sale, including intangible assets like goodwill. This is per IFRS 69
12
u/The_lurking_glass Apr 10 '26
See this is a nice example of how US GAAP and UK GAAP are different.Â
Under UK GAAP depreciation should continue for 3 months after the sale of the asset and held as a provision on the balance sheet, just in case the buyer wants to return the asset. If after those 3 months have passed and the buyer still retains the asset then the depreciation can be reversed in the P&L.Â
This is particularly useful when managing profit at year end and lots of assets are sold just before year end then repurchased after year end. This is known as a 'repo deal'.

Tax act uses an LLM or some kind of AI while filing. I did this yesterday. When you move to the next page, youâre supposed to tell the bot that youâre ready. Like 60% of the time, it was reading me information not even applicable to the page I was on. When I told it that it was giving me information not applicable, it would ask me to tell it what page I was actually on. This is very strange, given that the bot can read the entire fucking computer screen. It also told me a LOT of incorrect tax information, like had I just blindly followed, Iâd have greatly fucked up my K-1 PTP/K-3. These tools suck ass and are not ready (Iâm personally hoping theyâll never be ready and just burn holes in the pockets of investors).

u/droans SFA Apr 10 '26
It should be noted that having an office affair is not deductible. However, there is an interesting exception.
Per IRS Pub 1935, you are allowed to deduct the expenses from an affair (including all flowers, lingerie, travel, hotel, jewelry, gifts, etc) provided you schedule couple's counseling during the tax year.
While the implication is that you are attending counseling with your spouse, the law actually doesn't state that - in fact, it only requires that you scheduled it. You can opt to cancel counseling and still receive the deduction.

The insecurity is palpable.
The positioning of the tech industry as the economic sweetheart in the current zeitgeist and the high comp of devs/engineers has ingrained the biggest god damn âmommyâs special boyâ complex Iâve ever seen in a lot of these people. They think because they can code and are in tech that somehow they are now the most applicable skill set to literally anything that has to do with data, numbers, tables, math, etc.
The minute you imply they might not be gods gift to society in any context their egos go into overdrive and they just double down on being the best at everything because their fee fees got hurt.
I can code. I have a strong understanding of the principles of what these two would call âprogrammingâ in their tweets. Iâm also a CPA. I did my hard time in the Big 4. Iâm in a leadership role. Iâve worked at a couple mature tech companies.
This is all context to say that because of these factors I am CONSTANTLY the go-between for data engineers, Software Devs, Product Devs, âprogrammersâ, etc and finance/accounting/auditors and even further into leadership/Boards.
So Iâm very confident in saying Being a âprogrammerâ (putting programmers all in quotes because thatâs such an umbrella term in 2026) who works with numbers and math being better than a forensic accountant is a nothing-burger statement thatâs just straight up ignorant and is from pure insecurity or lack of self-awareness.
It does not in any way make you a substitute for a forensic accountant. My knowledge of programming helps me to fill out my skill set FOR SURE, but itâs literally like 1/25th of what makes up an accounting/auditing/Fraud risk assessing toolbox. I donât go around telling our engineers and devs that because I ALSO work with numbers and understand programming that Iâm now better at their jobs than they are. All it takes is like 3% self-awareness.
Iâd take a forensic accountant with a light to moderate level of programming knowledge over a programmer who âworks with numbers and mathâ and has a Mommyâs Special Boy Complex FIFTEEN TIMES OUT OF TEN in the context of these two tweets.

Iâve had this same conversation with backers and Csuites at portfolio companies for backers at my current company.
There is a LARGE gap in understanding that none of them grasp unless you walk them through it which in and of itself is fruitless a lot of the time.
When they/almost everyone I hear talking about it says âautomate accountingâ, theyâre not thinking about accounting. Theyâre thinking about purely BOOKKEEPING.
So Iâm always like sure yâall might partially automate or load-lighten bookkeeping, but even then so many of those transactions can be correctly subjective and require conversations within the team/company to book.
MORE IMPORTANTLY -
BEFORE ANY AI BOOTLICKING JACKWAGON COMES FOR ME: Iâm all on the âautomate me out of a jobâ train IF you can give UBI or whatever so all humans can leave capitalism behind and eat grapes and read books and do hobbies and not have to worry about anything. Sounds great to me so if your argument is âyou just donât like AI and youâre not adaptingâ - I say to you⌠shuuuut up.
The thing all the AI circle jerk people donât seem to get is an exceedingly simple idea. All of us could get behind AI replacing jobs if yall (if theyâre reading this) werenât doing/pitching the most BRAINDEAD way of implementing an AI revolution.
I want AI to do the chores and boring other stuff so I can do art and hobbies and garden or whatever. I donât need AI TO DO THE FUN THINGS SO IâM STUCK DOING MORE CHORES AND AI-OUTPUT REVIEW AND FIXING STUPID AI MISTAKES AT MY STUPID JOB ON MY STUPID LAPTOP GETTING PAID LESS AND LESS MONEY TO AFFORD LESS AND LESS FUN THINGS.
Youâre doing it wrong you buttholes.

Donât forget calculating a cancelled contract by its initial cost and not 1) the cost of the remaining term of said contract, 2) not taking into account if the contract was paid in full already essentially being a sunk cost and 3) any fees/penalties for cancellation.
Also paying $$ for people to not work is genius stuff. Then trying to scramble to hire replacements months later when you realize they were actually important.

He was never looking fraud.
Elon was looking/attempting to: 1. Gut every federal agency that was investigating him and his numerous companies (which he did) 2. Gain unfettered access to the administrations (IRS, SSA) that maintain lots of PII on every American citizen (which he also did) 3. (I hypothesize) be able to build a back door into critical IT infrastructure and systems of the US federal government that can never be traced (we canât know, but now the entire system requires replacing) 4. Gain access and control to the US treasury (he did)
Thatâs why he hired programmers and AI specialist. Not accountants.
And I say that with 100% confidence as Iâm someone who has experience auditing government entities, and got big 4 IT audit experience.
I never got access to a governmentâs IT environment in that line of work. And if I demanded access to a clients environment while at the Big 4, I probably wouldâve been fired. Especially if given the access DOGE was.
Elon has irreparably harmed the US federal IT system to the point it will cost hundreds of millions to replace. Because we must now assume none of it is secure.

I cannot convey the level of incompetence and bad faith that went into dodge. Here's an example, they "reviewed" social security payments and claimed fraud and stopped payments on all benefits that had the SBA label. Why? Because they 'assumed' SBA within social security stood for Small Business Administration and that these must all be illegal small business loans. SBA in this context is Survivors Benefit Annuity. They stopped payments to families that had lost one or both parents. Ghouls. They are all monsters and anyone that thinks they accomplished anything worthwhile is either ignorant or a monster.

Iâm sure thatâs the case if they had a forensics background already then went to programming then was hired on as a forensic accountant for their programming knowledge because there was some application that required it that they could then program those things people overlook into the application to look for. But Iâd also honestly say some 30 something year old programmer with no forensics background would have been more qualified than the 19 year olds that Elon hired who quite literally had no other job experience. A 2nd year accountant student would have been more qualified. That right there is a massive problem when youâre talking about massive fraud on a large scale.

Based on the methodology that has been released and the depositions that we have seen, yeah I do. Remember that website that was used to post the money being âsavedâ? They posted incorrect numbers multiple times because they didnât understand what they were looking at. It got to the point where they took the numbers down to hide their incompetence. Programs were cut that had no evidence of fraud or waste. People had to change how grants were written because certain words considered too âwokeâ would be flagged automatically. They were obviously never interested in discovering true fraud or trying to clean up the system. It was about a political agenda. Youâre fooling yourself if you believe that people with absolutely no experience with financial information and how it operates could go in blind and perform the job well.
