               TAX RESEARCH PROBLEM: CHECKPOINT ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONSOVERVIEWFor this assignment, you will be submitting a Word document with solutions for the problems detailed below. The purpose of this assignment is for you to apply research principles to relevant scenarios using the Thomson Reuters Checkpoint database. Checkpoint is an extensive database of legal and tax information which you have access to from the Jerry Falwell Library website. The database’s content includes laws, explanations, regulations, cases, IRS materials, news, treatises, and more.

INSTRUCTIONSThese problems should be submitted in the form of a Microsoft Word document, and labeled as follows: last name_problemscheckpoint.doc. Please label each problem and solution with the corresponding numbers and letters so your instructor can follow your work easily. As this is not a formal writing assignment, APA format is not required. Furthermore, there is no need to submit a title page or research page. Just include your full name at the top of the document. You can access the Checkpoint database in a variety of ways, but the easiest way is to use the Business Research Guide on the Jerry Falwell Library website. The Business Research Guide consolidates many of the best business resources the library has to offer.
