TaxPoint

Article Abstract:

Thorn EMI Datasolve's TaxPoint was one of the first computer accounting programs, and while it displays lackluster processing speeds, it is easy to use, has a clear layout, complete display and printing facilities, and depth of function. TaxPoint runs on a great variety of computers, including mainframes, and the version tested was Version 2.2 for the MS-DOS environment. Installation was lengthy but straightforward, and takes up to half a day to complete and test. The program produces detailed assessment data and summary income tax computations. The single-user version requires a fast computer with a 386 processor with a minimum 40 MB hard disk and a laser printer. The program costs 2,400 pounds sterling plus 100 pounds a month maintenance.

Professional Tax Planner

Article Abstract:

Digita International's Professional Tax Planner is a computer program for calculating the income tax liability of individuals and is aimed more at the general public than at the tax accountant. The menu-driven program runs on IBM-compatible PCs using DOS and is user friendly and can be used by those with only rudimentary knowledge of computers. The program produces income tax computations and the Inland Revenue Form 930, which can be printed, although the program does not produce the form itself. The program costs 435 pounds sterling, which is high considering its limited capabilities.
