AM-Tax is a software program designed to assist you in the preparation of
your 1992 federal tax return. There are four versions of AM-Tax, a
shareware program and three versions of the registered program. This is
the shareware version of AM-Tax. It can prepare a complete tax return
consisting of the Form 1040 and any of the Schedules (A, B, C, D, E, EIC,
F, R, and SE).
All printed forms and schedules (including Form 1040) have been approved
by the IRS and can be filed in place of the official form. For those
with relatively simple tax situations, the shareware version may be all
you need.
You should find AM-Tax easy to learn since it's designed around the federal
1040. Supporting documents are accessed by selecting from a menu of tax
forms or by pressing the F6 key when you're on a line calling for one of
the schedules or forms included in the AM-Tax program.
General-purpose worksheets are available to enhance your record keeping.
For instance, to keep a permanent tax record of your medical expenses, tell
AM-Tax to itemize that line of the Schedule A. AM-Tax will add up the
expenses, transfer the total to the line itemized, and print a detailed
list for your records. Up to 50 lines of your tax return can be 'itemized'
and up to 45 items can be listed on each worksheet. You'll find many other
useful features after reading through this manual and trying the program.
AM-Tax is your assistant in preparing your tax return. It will save you a
lot of time, but it does not offer advice. You are the one responsible for
deciding whether you should file a return, which forms you need, and for
the figures entered and calculated on your return. The formulas in this
software program have been carefully checked and we believe that they are
correct. However, the tax laws are complex and at times vague. In some
cases your special circumstances may not be properly handled by the
program's calculations. You are the one ultimately responsible for the
numbers on the form. Inspect them before signing your return.
The 1992 SHAREWARE version of AM-Tax supports the following federal forms:
Form 1040 - Individual Tax Return
Schedule A - Itemized Deductions
Schedule B - Interest/Dividend Income
Schedule C - Business Income or Loss (5 copies)
Schedule D - Capital Gain or Loss
Schedule D1 - Capital Gain or Loss Continuation Sheet
Schedule E-1 - Rental/Royalty Income (15 rental properties)
Schedule E-2 - Partnership, S-Corp, Estate, Trust Income
Schedule EIC - Earned Income Credit
Schedule F - Farm Income
Schedule K1 - Partnership/S-Corp Income
Schedule K1 - Estate/Trust Income
Schedule R - Credit for Elderly
Schedule SE - Self-Employment Tax (2 copies)
Form W-2 - Wage and Salary Income (25 copies)
Form W-2G - Gaming Income (3 copies)
Form 1099R - Pension/IRA Income (5 copies)
AM-Tax uses special 'worksheets' to handle specific situations on the

Dependent Worksheet (15 dependents)
Depreciation Worksheet (40 properties)

(acknowledges use of the AM-Tax shareware version to do
your 1992 tax return; entitles you to phone support and

As stated earlier in the documentation, there are other versions of this
software also available. I've edited the documentation of this file to

This program represents another fine piece of work that is sure to enhance
the belief (one I've always had) that there IS "shareware" out there that is
every bit as good as any "commercial" product!
