    You know what sucks. Just when I think I understand a concept something else pops up that I've never seen before. Learning this stuff is such a moving target. I've been really freaking out today about this crap.

    Hey Wannabe!

    I added in the tax exempt income because it asks for “accounting income” not “taxable income”. I'm probably wrong though since you guys agreed.
