“In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity.” – Sun Tzu. There are so many moving parts this year when it comes to taxes, exemptions, credits, and changes. Brian and Barbara Weltman, noted small business tax expert, discuss the many bills working their way through Congress and what they mean to business owners. Listen to the podcast, then call your Accountant!
Understanding the tax code during normal times is challenging enough but over the past 15 months, we've had 5 major tax bills passed. Which was unprecedented but so was COVID-19 and many of the new measures are focused on trying to help small businesses keep their doors open. Now that most small businesses have completed their 2020 taxes they are looking at what tax incentives they might be eligible for in 2021. A key point for small businesses to know is the expenses that were covered by the various government programs like PPP are still deductible on your taxes. On the payroll side of things, businesses that have 20 or more employees on a group health plan and are subject to COBRA are mandated to pay the insurance premiums from April 1st through September 30th of 2021. You will receive a tax credit for what you pay but it is a bit of an administrative chore to track properly. There is also the employee tax credit that runs through the end of 2021 and has been greatly enhanced compared to what was given in 2020. If you are a self-employed business owner you need to understand estimated taxes and self-employment taxes. What you need to know is that you have to pay both the employee and employer share of those taxes on your net profits. Also, because your income doesn't have any withholdings on it like a normal paycheck you have to pay, typically quarterly, any estimated taxes you owe. The challenge, I hear from most self-employed people is they don't have the money to pay the estimated taxes when the time comes. What I recommend is to create a separate account for taxes and every time you get paid take 10 to 20 percent of those funds and route them to that account. That way the money doesn't end up getting spent on other business expenses. When it comes to what you should pay your employees, that is a challenge for small businesses. Most of the Big Box retailers have committed to paying employees $15 an hour which means that is what the labor market expects you to pay as well. The even bigger challenge though is now your employees that are paid above minimum wage will also expect an increase in their compensation. Not to mention all of these changes increase your payroll taxes and benefits costs because your payroll base has increased. Like it or not you have to consider the big picture because the increase in minimum wage will have a trickle-down effect across your business operations.

The Story Exchange Is Your Business Ready for Summer Vacation Time? Ask These 3 Questions It's that time of year, when sunshine beckons. If you or your employees plan to take time off, now's a good time to assess your vacation policy. May 21, 2019 By Barbara Weltman It’s vacation time, for you and your employees. (Credit: Lance Asper on Unsplash) In the next several weeks and months, employees will be taking time off from work for summer vacations. According to a survey by Bankrate.com, about 38% of employees with paid vacation days plan to use them all this summer. Other findings: 59% plan to use more than half 5% plan to use less than 25% of their days 6% won’t use any time Now is a good time to determine what your company’s needs will be this summer. Also, given the tight job market, it’s a good time to assess your vacation policy. Here are three questions to ask: 1. Have you planned for a reduced work staff? Determine what will need to be done during the time when you/employees are off. Do what’s possible in advance. For me, this always means working double time for weeks in advance to satisfy the work deadlines that fall during my vacation. If possible, discuss with customers and clients about scheduling work after your/your employees’ vacations. Employees in your company may or may not fall within the survey’s findings mentioned earlier. Make sure you’re covered for any problems that need to be addressed while you are away. This can be done by giving an employee added responsibilities. Also, see that employees can cover for each other when needed. If necessary, hire temporary workers to fill in gaps in your staffing. With temporary workers, you pay the agency a fee for their services; they remain the employees of the agency. Summer interns may be helpful too. 2. What’s your vacation policy? How many vacation days do you offer? Federal law does not mandate that you give any paid time off, but you’d be hard-pressed to hire and retain good workers without a paid vacation policy. According to the BLS, 73% of all workers in the private sector have paid vacations. The number of annual paid vacation days workers receive varies with length of service. After one year of service, workers are most likely to have 10 to 14 days of paid vacation (38%). After 10 years of service, workers are most likely to have 15 to 19 days of paid vacation (39%). Those with at least 20 years of service are most likely to have either 20 to 24 days of paid vacation (32%) or more than 24 days of paid vacation (29%). Vacation policies at small companies may differ from those at large corporations. According to Zenefits, paid time off (PTO), which includes not only vacation days, but also sick and personal days, was lower at companies with 1-99 employees. For example, after one year, the average number of PTOs at small firms was 9, compared with 12 at larger companies. 3. What do state laws require? As yet, there are no states that require employers to offer paid (or even unpaid) vacation days. But if you offer paid vacation days, there are certain rules governing how they accumulate, whether there can be a use-it-or-lose-it policy, and whether unused days must be paid when employment terminates. For example, in California, earned vacation time is considered wages and vacation time is earned or vests as labor is performed (e.g., 10 vacation days a year would mean 5 have been earned after 6 months). Here’s a chart listing vacation pay state laws, but it’s smart to check in with your state to make sure the information is current.
