Some places are more than just a piece of family history.

Recently, the Motl family gathered for their annual family reunion at the property where Chuck’s mother grew up. The small one-room log cabin may be weathered, but it holds generations of memories. This is where she was raised alongside her parents and two siblings. A larger home also sits on the property that she moved into as an adult.

The Motl family continues to return year after year to celebrate their roots, share stories, and spend time together.

At Motl Accounting, family and community are a big part of who we are. We’re proud to carry that history forward and grateful for the places and people that helped shape our family along the way.

Did you know your child may qualify for a $1,000 government-funded investment account?

The new Trump Account is designed to help children start building wealth from birth. Eligible children born between 2025 and 2028 can receive a $1,000 government contribution, and family members can make additional contributions over the years to help the account grow.

Like any new tax law, there are eligibility requirements, contribution limits, and planning opportunities that may affect your family.

Have questions or want to know if your child qualifies? Give our office a call or visit motlaccounting.com to meet with an expert. We'd be happy to help you understand how these new accounts work.

When you contribute to a traditional 401(k) or a traditional IRA, that money is typically taken out before taxes are calculated.

This effectively lowers your taxable income for the year.

We help you navigate the specific contribution limits for 2026 so you can save more now and enjoy more later.

If your current system for saving business receipts involves a stuffed shoebox, it's time for a new playbook.

Here is how to streamline your expense tracking:

1. Go Digital: Snap photos and store them instantly in the cloud.

2. Log the Context: Jot down who you met with and what business objective was discussed.

3. Match Monthly: Spend 10 minutes at the end of every month matching your digital receipts to your bank statements to catch missing records early.

Not all debt is the same.

Understanding whether your borrowing is fueling your business or weighing it down is the key to sustainable growth.

Take a look at these different factors:

- Good debt is used for investing in future business growth. Bad debt is often used for covering operational gaps or past mistakes.

- With good debt, the asset generates more cash than the interest cost. With bad debt, you're often funding items that lose value or offer no long-term gain.

- Good debt typically comes with low, fixed interest rates. Bad debt often involves high-interest credit cards or predatory merchant advances.

It’s C!

In a famous tax case, a professional bodybuilder was allowed to deduct the cost of tanning products and equipment because it was deemed a "necessary" expense for their specific profession and stage appearances.

"Ordinary and necessary" can mean different things for different businesses.

Let’s look at the facts together at www.motlaccounting.com.

Looking for a reason to upgrade your ride? This new tax provision might just be your green light!

You can now deduct the first $10,000 from your car loan interest on vehicles with final assembly in the US for tax years 2025-2028.

This itemized deduction phases out for those with income over $100,000 single, $200,000 joint.

You may need to provide the VIN to prove the manufacture date qualifies.

This doesn’t affect business vehicles; companies can already write off car interest.
