Book excerpt: If you're a business owner wanting to learn more about taxes without going through boring textbooks, then keep reading... Benjamin Franklin once said that "in life, only two things are certain: death and taxes." He wasn't exaggerating about the latter. And because you must deal with taxes for as long as you live and earn money, you must get it right every time. Unlike any other infractions or violations, tax-related offenses have major repercussions. At a minimum, you will pay fines and expenses. But if your tax violations are serious, you may end up in jail. Think about this: the infamous mafia gangster boss Al Capone was indicted and sent to prison not because of his violent crimes, but because of tax violations. Hence, you must take your taxes very seriously. So, what does it take to manage your taxes successfully and avoid the massive inconveniences associated with being flagged by the Internal Revenue Service for tax violations? There are so many answers to this question, but they can be summed up in one term: tax accounting. And that is what this book is all about. Written with non-accountant entrepreneurs in mind, this book can help you learn important tax accounting principles for ensuring optimal tax management in your business. These include: What tax accounting is. Important tax accounting guidelines. The difference between accounting and bookkeeping. How to claim tax deductions legally. How to choose the right business entity. How to manage payroll tax. Discover if you need an S corporation or a C corporation. And much, much more! By the time you're finished with this book, you'll be armed with sufficient knowledge to ensure proper management of your businesses' income taxes. And while you can never avoid taxes, what you'll learn here can make you and the IRS the best of friends. So, grab your copy of this book now and start your journey towards optimal tax management for your small business.
Download or read book How Do I Tax Thee written by Kristin Tate and published by All Points Books. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "We all know the government taxes our income. Federal, state, and local taxes are withheld by employers, as are Social Security payments. But what about the many other ways the government covertly drains money from our wallets? Have you studied your cell phone bill? Customers in New York State pay an average of 24.36% in combined taxes on their wireless bills. They’re also charged for obscure services they didn’t ask for and don’t understand, like a universal service fund fee, an FCC compliance fee, a line service fee, and an emergency services fee. These aren’t taxes, strictly speaking. The government imposes these administrative and regulatory costs, and your wireless provider passes them along to you. What about your cable bill? Your power bill? Your trash bill? The cost of groceries, a gallon of gas, a cab ride, a hotel stay, and a movie ticket are all inflated by hidden fees. How much of what you pay at the grocery store, pump, airport, or the box office is really an indirect tax? In a series of short, pointed, fact-laden, humorous chapters, Kristin Tate exposes how up to half of your income is siphoned straight into federal, state, and city government coffers--and also where these hidden taxes and fees come from."--Dust jacket.
Download or read book The Missing Billionaires written by Victor Haghani and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2023-08-28 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Economist Best Book of the Year "Making Money and Keeping It" – The Wall Street Journal Over the past century, if the wealthiest families had spent a reasonable fraction of their wealth, paid taxes, invested in the stock market, and passed their wealth down to the next generation, there would be tens of thousands of billionaire heirs to generations-old fortunes today. The puzzle of The Missing Billionaires is why you cannot find one such billionaire on any current rich list. There are a number of explanations, but this book is focused on one mistake which is of profound importance to all investors: poor risk decisions, both in investing and spending. Many of these families didn’t choose bad investments– they sized them incorrectly– and allowed their spending decisions to amplify this mistake. The Missing Billionaires book offers a simple yet powerful framework for making important lifetime financial decisions in a systematic and rational way. It's for readers with a baseline level of financial literacy, but doesn’t require a PhD. It fills the gap between personal finance books and the academic literature, bringing the valuable insights of academic finance to non-specialists. Part One builds the theory of optimal investment sizing from first principles, starting with betting on biased coins. Part Two covers lifetime financial decision-making, with emphasis on the integration of investment, saving and spending decisions. Part Three covers practical implementation details, including how to calibrate your personal level of risk-aversion, and how to estimate the expected return and risk on a broad spectrum of investments. The book is packed with case studies and anecdotes, including one about Victor’s investment with LTCM as a partner, and a bonus chapter on Liar’s Poker. The authors draw extensively on their own experiences as principals of Elm Wealth, a multi-billion-dollar wealth management practice, and prior to that on their years as arbitrage traders– Victor at Salomon Brothers and LTCM, and James at Nationsbank/CRT and Citadel. Whether you are young and building wealth, an entrepreneur invested heavily in your own business, or at a stage where your primary focus is investing and spending, The Missing Billionaires: A Guide to Better Financial Decisions is your must-have resource for thoughtful financial decision-making.
