Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author sets out to explore the unsolved murder of a teenage girl from her old neighborhood, picks up the cold trail of a serial rapist and his other victims and finds herself caught up in a real-life drama. Similar Transactions is the fascinating, award-winning true story of the author's seven-year quest to solve a 20-year-old murder. Sasha Reynolds has never forgotten the mishandled case of fifteen-year-old Michelle Anderson, a vibrant beauty who went missing from Reynolds' Knoxville, Tennessee, neighborhood years earlier. Aided by her old professor, famed forensic anthropologist Dr. William (Bill) Bass--founder of the University of Tennessee's "Body Farm"--Reynolds picks up the trail of this long-cold case. As she presses neglected pieces of the puzzle into place, she unearths a string of brutal kidnappings and rapes across the South, crimes that span decades. All evidence points to one man: convicted sex offender Larry Lee Smith. She meets with victims and former investigators who worked on the case. A picture begins to form. Patterns appear. As a result of Reynolds' efforts, the Knoxville Police Department reopens the cold-case of Michelle's disappearance, but Larry Lee is about to be released from a Georgia prison, where he served time for a related crime--a "similar transaction." As his sentence runs out, Reynolds finds herself in a real-life drama. What transpires in this story is amazing on many levels. Reynolds writes a gripping and fascinating story, including how victims, former police and FBI investigators, and a savvy prosecutor come together on a mission to get justice for Michelle. Similar Transactions is the recipient of the IAN Outstanding True Crime Book of the Year Award, the 2017 eLit Gold Award for True Crime, and is among the top five books named The Best of Everything Nonfiction 2016 by author, critic, and screenwriter Emilio Corsetti III.

Download or read book Virtues and Fallacies of VAT An Evaluation after 50 Years written by Robert F. van Brederode and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2021-08-09 with total page 615 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Value-added tax (VAT) is a mainstay of revenue systems in more than 160 countries. Because consumption is a more stable revenue base than other tax bases, VAT is less distorting and hence more likely to encourage investment, savings, optimum labor supply decisions, and growth. VAT is not without criticism however, and faces its own specific technical and policy challenges. This book, the first to thoroughly evaluate VAT from a global policy perspective after over 50 years of experience with its intricacies, offers authoritative perspectives on VAT’s full spectrum—from its signal successes to the subtle ways its application can undermine revenue performance and economic neutrality. The contributors—leading tax practitioners and academics—examine the key policy issues and topics that are crucially relevant for measuring the success of the tax in the first part of the book, including: revenue generation and revenue efficiency; single rate versus multiple rates; susceptibility to fraud; exemptions and exceptions; compliance cost for businesses; policy and compliance gaps in revenue collection; adjustment rules caused by the transactional nature of the tax; transfer pricing issues; treatment of vouchers; permanent establishments and holding companies; payment of refunds; cross-border digital transactions; and supplies for free or below cost price. The second part offers six country reports—on New Zealand, Japan, China, Colombia, Ethiopia, and India—to demonstrate the different ways in which VAT operates in a variety of national economies. Whether a government is contemplating the imposition of a general consumption tax for the first time or new rules for applying an existing one, it is important for policymakers to keep central the aim to design a tax that realizes optimal efficiency and causes minimal distortions. This invaluable book serves as an expert guide to VAT policy development in this area. It will be welcomed not only by concerned government officials but also by tax professionals (both lawyers and accountants) and academics in tax law.
