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. |

| bookkeeping and taxes for small business: Profit First Mike Michalowicz, 2017-01-18 Author of cult classics The Pumpkin Plan and The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur offers a simple, counterintuitive cash management solution that will help small businesses break out of the doom spiral and achieve instant profitability. Conventional accounting uses the logical (albeit, flawed) formula: Sales - Expenses = Profit. The problem is, businesses are run by humans, and humans aren't always logical. Serial entrepreneur Mike Michalowicz has developed a behavioral approach to accounting to flip the formula: Sales - Profit = Expenses. Just as the most effective weight loss strategy is to limit portions by using smaller plates, Michalowicz shows that by taking profit first and apportioning only what remains for expenses, entrepreneurs will transform their businesses from cash-eating monsters to profitable cash cows. Using Michalowicz's Profit First system, readers will learn that: · Following 4 simple principles can simplify accounting and make it easier to manage a profitable business by looking at bank account balances. · A small, profitable business can be worth much more than a large business surviving on its top line. · Businesses that attain early and sustained profitability have a better shot at achieving long-term growth. With dozens of case studies, practical, step-by-step advice, and his signature sense of humor, Michalowicz has the game-changing roadmap for any entrepreneur to make money they always dreamed of. |
