Need help with a very small business tax question Thanks?

06 Jun

My friend and I started a flea market business in April 2009 selling baby items. We spent $3,149 buying merchandises and at the end of the 2009, the value of our inventory is $2,449. Our gross sale is around $930. When I input in TurboTax, $2,449 as the value of the inventory at the end of 2009; we got charged $1200 from federal .

Why is there a charge of $1200!!!!! We have lost money already, we can’t afford to lose anymore.

Please help
Thanks in advance

How do I find out if the business name I want is okay or if someone else has rights to it? Can it be similar?

04 Jun

What are the guidelines for naming your own business, and how do I know if it is going to be LLC, Inc., Co.,etc. I would be selling some various retail items, and not employing anyone other than family. I’m not sure at this point if I want to lease commercial space or try to start off just selling from home. Do I need to schedule a meeting with my attorney to find out about liability, paying taxes, etc. or with my accountant? I really just need help with the technicalities and laws, as I know very little about being a business owner. Any ideas on where to begin?

I own and operate a local computer repair company. I need to know what tax forms I need to file and in what order. I have read everything just about on the IRS website and still have no clue on what to do. I know something about a Schedule C form, but where do I send it, how do I figure up my taxes, estimated taxes, excise taxes, or what do I need to do?

02 Jun

I collected unemployment for most of the year, but in October I started my own home business with my own Tax ID number. Can I file the business taxes now but ask for an extention for my personal taxes? I believe I will have to pay personal taxes, and I will do that when my business gets better. Thanks to anyone who knows about this and where I can find the info.
I do have a corporation, a separate Tax ID

What is a good strategy for selling a small business without paying capital gains tax?

29 May

I have an automotive repair shop and I would like to defer paying capital gains tax by rolling the proceeds of the sale of the business into another investment. I do not see the point of paying capital gains tax on the sale when I will simply take the money and reinvest it in another business. Can I do this even if the money does not go into a similar business? Ideally, I’d like to invest the money in a mutual fund and take out maybe 10% per year to help with living expenses.

Should any one who owns a business be made to prove legal status?

29 May

Should all who apply for a business license be made sure that they are here legally?
Should this be a national requirement for all businesses?
Should illegal aliens be allowed to own a business here since they have disrespected our laws?

City business owners must prove citizenship
Filling out an application is not enough anymore. Business owners within the city of Conyers must now confirm they are in the country legally before they can run a business.

CONYERS — Filling out an application is not enough anymore. Business owners within the city of Conyers must now confirm they are in the country legally before they can run a business.

Local government agencies were recently called to verify citizenship and immigration status of business owners through the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements, or SAVE, program of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.

The Conyers City Council voted Jan. 20 to enter into an agreement with the federal agencies though Conyers city attorney Michael Waldrop noted they did not have much choice.

“The Georgia Legislature has required that cities and counties participate in the SAVE program to verify the legality of those who do business and receive benefits from the city,” Waldrop told the council members.

Councilman Marty Jones voiced concerns that paying for notary services every year, in addition to getting a business license, would be inconvenient “on the operations side.”

“People who write the regulations don’t have to live by them,” Jones said.

The new requirement will affect the roughly 1,800 businesses in Conyers.

“Unless you have a notary in your office, the proprietor is going to have to go somewhere — whether it’s the city, the bank, the post office, somewhere — to get someone to notarize this document (affidavit), swearing that he is, in fact, a legal citizen or here legally, whatever the status may be,” Waldrop said.

The new requirement will affect those applying for retirement benefits, health benefits, contracts, alcoholic beverage licenses, occupation tax certificates, taxi cab licenses, insurance company licenses, pawn brokers licenses, massage therapists licenses, billiard room operations licenses, precious metals and gems dealers licenses, conducting flea market licenses and peddlers and itinerant trades licenses, according to the city documents.
