Spreadsheets for Actors
We've worked with various professionals in the Entertainment industry, from Directors and Producers to Actors. The business of acting is one of the hardest businesses to manage and non-actors often don’t appreciate the variables that are involved. An Actor is officially self-employed, but in many instances he is employed and taxes are taken out of his/her paychecks. This makes tax time particularly challenging for most actors. We have created many of our entertainment-related products on this site with the direct involvement of actors or Producers and Directors. Some products have evolved over many years to become what they are today. We are confident that these products will save actors the time that they need to commit the merest morsel of their time to their tax-preparation preparation. After which they can go to their Accountant/Tax preparer.

The actor tax package is a series of linked Excel spreadsheets (1 file), programmed to take you step by step through the process of adding all your income and expenses for both your entertainment business and a second business you may have.
