Added for You - How To Turn Business Losses Into Cash Flow
While I’m not prone to stereotyping, it has been my experience that there are generally two types of people: those that don’t know what they don’t know and those that do, in fact, know what they don’t know. All other things being equal the difference between the two groups boils down to experience and discernment.Those people who don’t know what they don’t know typically tend to be either younger professionals beginning their careers who have a lack of experience, or older professionals who have not gained wisdom and maturity as they have progressed along their career path.The Early Stage Professional:
It should be noted that even where the business owner does not have other salaried (tax paid) income, they might have a husband or wife who does have salaried income. If they become a partner in a partnership conducting the business, or a shareholder in a Loss Attributing Q
Even with the best of intentions, you still may have overlooked the obvious. Suppose you spent hours on a good headline, took a pretty picture of your storefront and covered all the who, what, where, when, and why questions, did you still forget the most important reason you ran the ad in the first place? Of course you want customers, but which ones? If you said, “all of them,” then shame on you. You can’t have them all. There are competitors and they are also chasing after them as well. So why not specialize?Why? Well, do you want only the price-shoppers? If you emphasized “low-prices” in the headline, that’
We are talking about the taxation authorities such as Inland Revenue Department in New Zealand (IRD), the Australian Taxation Office in Australia (ATO) and Inland Revenue in the United Kingdom and the Inland Revenue Service in the USA (IRS). All of these taxation administrations, along with those in Canada and South Africa for example, have both income tax and goods and services tax (GST) or value added tax (VAT) that present opportunities for refunds when a business’ expenses exceed its income in the early stages of its life.
Initially, the start-up capital may come from savings, family and friends and salaried employment. The last source of finance – salaried income – means that the business operator still works full-time for a salary and part-time on their business. This presents particular opportunities to receive extra cash flow to fund the growth of the business – from value-added taxes and income tax refunds.

In our current climate of low unemployment, boomers leaving the job scene and the shift from labor-intensive to knowledge-intensive jobs, talent retention and hiring success based on job-fit practices has moved up on the corporate priorities list. How can we measure the effects of our current hiring and retention practices?In hiring a new employee, most of the direct costs are front-loaded, occurring before or in the first few days of employment. Most of the indirect costs are post-hire, adding up over time of training, acclimation and acculturation. At some point, usually long after the date of hire, the emp

You know the first time your spouse comes home and says we have a great opportunity or how do you feel about New Jersey, or what do think about Phoenix? Something is in the air but you‘re not quite sure what it is. The next time you hear it you know the drill, get ready for the madness. Here are some hints for the first timers.•The corporate world puts on the concerned face for the family but the deal really is to get your husband or your wife to a location that benefits the company first. Everyone else is the baggage they try to be pleasant about. Your job is to make it work for everyone else yourself

Background - Who Should Read This Article?True entrepreneurs prefer to EARN what they make through honest and intelligent effort, and typically abhor offers of "handouts" or favours. Many people in developed societies have enough around them to help them understand that entrepreneuring can be prestigious, and investing in, or patronising an entrepreneur can be quite rewarding.The fact is that the clients/customers or investors who have to consider what a first-time startup entrepreneur has to offer them, may NOT have the benefit of access to his/her business track record(since it would be his/he
It should be noted that even where the business owner does not have other salaried (tax paid) income, they might have a husband or wife who does have salaried income. If they become a partner in a partnership conducting the business, or a shareholder in a Loss Attributing Qualifying Company (LAQC) in New Zealand only, then they can share in the business losses and receive income tax refunds.
In Australia, there was an ATO income tax ruling (IT 2218) that allowed a partner to receive a salary – as long as the partnership agreement recorded it in writing – and this presented an opportunity to maximize the loss for one partner (the salaried partner), thereby maximizing the income tax refund. That income tax ruling was withdrawn on 22nd May 2002. Australia has no LAQC equivalent entity. However, there is nothing preventing a partnership agreement specifying a partnership split other than 50/50, so that one partner can receive more of the loss than the other. It would be prudent for the partnership agreement to record the reasons for the ratio used.
So, how does it work? Most businesses start off making losses, and small businesses and home-based businesses are not exempt from this. The total revenue or income is usually low. It is often below the thresholds where the business has to register for GST or VAT, so that the business owner may be tempted to not register for GST or VAT, thereby saving on administration (in filing the returns) or accounting costs.
