    The Q/A between Question Mark and Anthony is a good illustration of just how people continue to misunderstand compensation deferrals and how they impact the CBT.

    The simple, honest answer should have started with deferred compensation DOES impact the tax calculation. Anthony’s point, while technically accurate, was so nuanced it failed to clarify that this reader was fundamentally wrong in his/her conclusion.

    Anthony and Tim, you and your staff have a responsibility to report facts clearly and help clarify confusion. You can do better.
