Tax Matters Representation: A Little Bit of Tax

Wednesday, April 9, 2014. A Little Bit of Tax. It seems like every day brings new questions about the digital currency called bitcoin, which first appeared in 2009. Who is the shadowy "Satoshi Nakamoto" who created the currency's protocol and software? Who stole $450 million worth of bitcoin from the Tokyo-based Mt. Gox exchange? Who was the mystery buyer who used bitcoin to snag a $500,000 house on the Indonesian island of Bali? Last week, the IRS solved. Bitcoin transaction you make! Meaning users feel...

Wednesday, February 26, 2014. Now We Know Why She's Dancing. The Swedish pop band ABBA rocketed to global superstardom in the 1970s, with hits like Waterloo. And, of course, Dancing Queen. Named for members A. Gnetha Fältskog, B. Jörn Ulvaeus, B. Enny Anderson, and A. Nni-frid Lyngstad, ABBA is the one of the best-selling music groups of all time. They haven't performed together since 1982. But that didn't stop Ulvaeus and Anderson from turning their songs into a hit musical, Mamma Mia! So it might surpr...

Friday, April 25, 2014. Fall into a Fortune. Getting an audit notice is never anyone's idea of fun. But getting audited isn't always the disaster it might seem. In fact, for fiscal 2012, 107,820 lucky winners got refunds. After their audits. Granted, that's still shy of seven percent of everyone audited that year. But it proves you can. Walk away from the IRS a winner. You already know where we're headed, don't you? Naturally, Bennoyer sued. For $10 million. 250,000 for future. So, what do you think?

Wednesday, December 18, 2013. Christmas is almost here, and that means millions of parents across America are telling their kids to behave themselves or risk winding up on the "Naughty List."
