AICPA Calls For SBA To Change Unfair PPP Guidance

Pull up an ear and check out the latest accounting news for this week! We're talking about whether the IRS can make crypto any more confusing with its new 1040 crypto FAQ, and we'll do a rundown of what's important for accountants to know in the latest stimulus bill. Meanwhile, AICPA is calling for the SBA to change unfair PPP guidance, and calling for a tax filing deadline extension. In app news, we've got updates from FreshBooks, QuickBooks, Xero, and Square. Then, we'll dive into robotic process automation (RPA), thanks to a New York Times article, and we'll learn why Excel is the most important tool for at least one marijuana grower, and because munchies, we're going to travel to a Canadian burger joint that makes your meal choices expensable! All this, and more on today's episode!
