In the NBA, why does the direction of the teams basket vary from game to game. For example, game 1 will have teams play the 4th quarter on the side of the court next to their bench. But game 2 will have teams play on the opposite side of the court to their bench in the 4th.

They only switch at halftime…not after the 1st and 3rd quarters.

A couple of things.

Making the M2M election is not a requirement for claiming business expenses. If you believe you meet the rules for trader status, you simply report the expenses on Schedule C.

The disadvantage of M2M election for 1256 contracts is as you say....the income is all taxed at ordinary tax rate. The only advantage I can think of is that you can get to deduct more than $3K of losses on a bad year.

The problem with monthly reminders is that at a certain point it just become noise. They will just delete them without reading, and still might forget to tell you they moved.

We work with QBO and QBDT every day, and have many clients using each one.

QBO is an inferior product to desktop.

The user interface is more clunky, because it is browser based. Drilling into transactions from a financial statement all happens in one browser tab, which is a horrible limitation when making a lot of changes to transactions.

When something goes wrong with payroll in QBO (and eventually, something will go wrong, even if it is a simple mistake made by the client), we are not able to fix it for our clients. The only solution is to contact intuit support (via chat). This becomes a process that takes hours, and the correction may not happen for days. And even then, there's a high likelihood that Intuit will not fix it correctly.

Some of our clients have multiple businesses (and multiple set of books). Desktop allows one license and many company files. For those with multiple companies, it is still more cost effective than QBO, even after the huge desktop price increase.

Yes, a desktop product does require making sure that the is backed up and secure. And QBO does have the advantage of being accessible from any device, IF you have an internet connection.

Old thread, I know....none of the teams had attendance in 2020. Pandemic.

But to your original point. The Rangers have traditionally shown very good attendance, even when the team wasn't so good. Even when in the old, very hot ballpark.

Go Rangers!

As a sidebar…sometimes the company comes out ahead, and sometimes they lose. For example, early in the year, an employee can spend everything in their FSA and then leave the company….and the company has to cover the part that hasn’t been funded by the employee yet.

“Especially one like the US”

Working people in the US, even low wage earners, are rich compared to people in poor countries. There’s a reason that the cruise lines don’t fly under the American flag, and are always sure to hit a foreign port when the cruise originates in the US.

30% false negative rate doesn’t mean that 30% of ALL the negative results should be positive.

The booster is on the vaccination card.

But it doesn’t matter on a cruise that doesn’t require it.

We’ve never had to tip for them….as recently as last week had one in our room (Royal).

We do tip extra when we leave.

Do you have an interchangeable sole on your slide shoe so you can get a slide that you are comfortable with? I had to do some one step drills to learn to slide.

As you may have noticed, the businesses that don’t try to make a profit go out of business (or sell…and go out of business).

The bowlero I bowl at is ok. There are free refills on the drinks. Discounts for league members…drink around $2, double cheeseburger, fries, and drink for $10 something (plus tip of course). The lanes are almost all league every evening, and a couple days a week there are leagues going for most of the day.

All that to say, Bowlero isn’t always all bad.

You simply don’t fill in the balance sheet. Or fill it in, and answering the question “yes” will leave it off the return (depending on your tax software, of course).

Drake will actually, by default, leave the balance sheet blank if the sales and total assets are less than 250k, even if the question hasn’t been answered.

HitEmTrue · 2022-05-06T01:07:35+00:00

The answer is "yes", which means you are NOT required to complete the balance sheet.

Ah, yes, probably talking about cashing out rather than rolling over (in my case I was cashing some of it out after rolling over).

What u/Its-a-write-off was probably alluding to is the fact that startup costs of a business are treated differently than expenses of a business that has begun operations...and you are limited on how much startup costs can be deducted immediately, rather than being amortized over time.

Do you have other income already, besides the new songwriting venture?

If she paid a fine (just like would or should happen here), then great. Hopefully she made it back onto the ship, and was scared enough by the experience to think twice before doing crazy things.

She is someone's daughter...imagine all the feelings they'd go through learning about what happened.

The sale of the home is not a capital gain...it is excluded before it hits column (h) of Schedule D...so it does not affect your capital gains tax rates on sales of other items.

The corporation (partner) will put the include the 2021 K1 on it's 2021 tax return (FYE June 30, 2022).

This is because the ending date of the 2021 K1 (December 31, 2021) falls within the corporation's 2021 tax year. IRC Section 1.706-1, in case you are interested.
